A Book For You
This was my favorite non-fiction read of the year.The Drunkard's Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives by Leonard Mlodinow
And the winner is lesterj
I'll take all requests for the book left in the comments during the next 48 hours, or so, and then use a random number generator to determine the winner. I'll then ship the book at my expense to the winner. The offer is limited to residents of the U.S. and Canada. My apologies to my good friends in other countries but the cost of shipments to other destinations is simply too high.
Note:The offer is open only to registered comments others will be ignored. Please make it clear if you want to be considered for the book or are just commenting.Tweet

How appropriate! A random number generator gets to choose who will read a book about randomness! I'd love to read it.
