I had the idea yesterday (while working out on WiiFit Plus, no less) to compile a bibliography for you! This is a good idea because a lot of the knowledge I want to impart to you - didn't come from me! It came from teachers I had, books I read, etc. As a matter of fact, NO knowledge really came from me. My brain was as clean as a whistle when I was born, just like yours, and personal experience only accounts for part of what you know. SO, I will make an alphabetical list here, and when I remember a book that I think you would enjoy or benefit from - I'll edit the post and add it! How does that sound? This is by no means a list of ALL the books I have read, though I have personally read all the ones that I list here. And if anyone out there in inter-web land can think of something knowledgeable or useful for baby Vincent - feel free to add it in the comments!
