Mae's Library

A passion for knowledge. History, linguistics, biology, physics, neuropsychology... I want to learn it all! To relax I'll read sci-fi or fantasy, and on a very rare occasion an actual novel.

Playing the Whore: The Work of Sex Work
It's a very interesting look at the politics at play surrounding sex work. The book is quite short, 130+ pages divided into 10 chapters, and generally an easy read. Sometimes,...

A Room of One's Own
Strange essay, it seems part historic overview, part thought-experiment, and part satire. But it has some thought-provoking sections, and is well worth a read.

The Communist Manifesto (Little Black Classics #20)
Basically a really complicated pamphlet, though it has some good sections.

Eccentric Britain: The Guide to Brittain's Follies and Foibles
It was alright, too many forced jokes to my liking and the occasional throwaway line that proved the author used to write for the Daily Mail.
Eccentric Britain: The Guide to Brittain's Follies and Foibles - Benedict le Vay
Don't Sleep, There Are Snakes: Life And Language In The Amazonian Jungle
Fascinating book, part travel story, part anthropological and linguistic treatise. It's good for thinking.
