This week's #NewBooks at the library: I contributed to a Kickstarter for Swedish Machines from Free League, the latest book with brilliant artwork from Simon Stålenhag. I also bought second-hand copies of The Cosmic Zoo: Complex Life on Many Worlds from Springer, as well as Dinosaur in a Haystack, another collection of the natural history essays by #StephenJayGould that I am slowly collecting.
