meh, never mind. 4 of them will be enough to get me through the next 10 years. I don't read much, see (unless they are something computer related which I have to read :frown:).

They go pretty quick, trust me - I once re-read all of them in a day. Plus Douglas Adams is just the King of the Universe. I'm not entirely sure how that's relevant, but I guess that it may also add to your reading speed :smile:

EDIT: If you finish 1-4 before you leave Cam, you can borrow my copy of no.5 :wink:

I'll finish 1-4 before I leave cam if and only if I get a pint of foam to go with your book 5.

...and time is merely a concept created by human percep... I should not argue with a philosopher.

Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about the foam :biggrin:

I'm reading a book on the nature of time at the moment actually, so if you want to argue with me about it then do so quickly before I form some basic understanding!

Can't be bothered... Relativity is just too mind boggling. (other than the fact that I've complete forgotten all about it and left my notes at home)

Some Part II General Relativity by Prof. Gibbons. He's not a brilliant lecturers, but his notes are excellent. I only went to 2 of his lectures, but the online notes made GR one of my best courses :smile:

What book on the nature of the time is this, out of interest? Is it a "general" i.e non-philosophy one? I'm currently reading something on the nature of language - absolutely fascinating (Pinker's "The Language Instinct").
