Slow Reading is in press and will be available soon.

I thought I might have the new version of OpenBook done beforehand but the publication is moving quickly. The cover image to your left is from Open Library via the current version of OpenBook.

The cover features a photo by Clara. I found the photo over a year ago when searching Flickr. You will enjoy looking at other photos on Clara’s site. See these other photos of snails and books. (Clara, as soon as I get the author copies, I will be sending you one. Thanks again.)

I added the cover image to Open Library, but the bibliographic data was already there, as it was in Amazon, Library of Congress, and WorldCat. No doubt these sources are linked, but it is impressive how fast book data gets pushed across the web.

I will announce when the book is available.
