    Re: what are you reading?

    Got a new book today. It's in Swedish, but an approximate translation of the title would be: "The Shrinking Cod and Other Evolutionary Miracles", written by Katja Bargum and Hanna Kokko. I've only read the foreword so far, but it seems promising. One of the authors held a lecture at my university last week and that got me interested in buying the book.

    Why am I sharing this, knowing that nobody else here can read it? Your guess is as good as mine.

    I think it's just an evil plot of some kind to mess with our heads. That's it, I'm going to learn how to read Swedish. Then I can borrow the book. Right, Stefan.

    If you do that, I'll buy you your own copy.

    Finnish is also an alternative, it's currently available in both languages.
