Tod gave me a


Tod gave me a present of books. He often orders books from Powell’s in Portland and he loves their delivery. They come in big, grey postal sacks.

There’s no bookstore quite like Powell’s here in Tokyo—not for English books, certainly (the paucity of English books in this city is really depressing), but not for Japanese books either. So we buy our books online and have them shipped overseas to us.

What did I receive in this batch? Edward Tufte’s The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, a book all about the theories behind graphics and charts, very interesting reading, an O’Reilly book on Web Navigation to add to my collection, and a few novels to share.
