What swanky things are you reading?

[Ghoulish Delight]

I made my first book purchase for myself in a long time. Douglas Hofstadter's I am a Strange Loop. I swear, the collection of symbols that, in aggregate, form the larger, highly complex, self-referential symbol referred to as "I" loves every word that man writes.

Meanwhile, he mentions Vehicles: Experiments in Synthetic Psychology by Valentino Braitenberg. If I can find it without paying for it I think that's next on my list.
