>Ross drove two hours a day from New Jersey to attend the elite Catholic college preparatory Xavier High School in Manhattan. He ran track and was captain of the rifle team. He earned a BA degree from Yale College, which was also his father's alma mater. At Yale, Ross edited one of the literary magazines and worked at the radio station. Ross's art collection is conservatively valued at $150 million and includes pieces ranging from Western surrealists to contemporary Eastern sculptures.

Those chunky books are omnibuses. most of them were released individually as trilogies before being collected in the big omnibuses

If you want to give Judge Dredd a try, I'd suggest Complete Case Files 2. It has a bunch of classic stories like The CUrsed Earth and The Day the Law Died, and it's really where they figured out the world of Judge Dredd and the comic hit it's stride. It's only 20 bucks, and each complete case file will last you a long time, so it'snot a bad deal

spqr isnt neither an authoritative nor exhaustive history of the roman empire. mary beard has a particular point of view about rome (sort of that its a messy, imperfect but lovable, multiculture) and aims to prove that in the work. she stops at 212 ad when roman citizenship were extended to every free man in the roman empire - and constantly talks about what lessons we can learn from their history.

very interesting read but NOT a history of rome.

Annotated? Arden probably, maybe
They have everything on the page, both lexical notes, references and allusions, stuff from scholarly work on the subject, etc., maybe you find it obtrusive because it's not like you're gonna need or want to read every note, but I prefer that to the end-note format you find in cheaper books like Penguin
Arden's notes are very extensive, though, for better and worse

cheers f[a]m i rarely buy new books except for school them theyre mainly 2nd hand or stolen/gifts.

yeah i probably should get round to reading that. my knowledge of economics is nil. is economics a subject which is better to read the original ideas (like philosophy) rather than the current understanding (like physics. you wouldnt read principia to learn physics).

and yeah that physics book is good. i think it covers the first year and a half of a physics degree so unless your actually doing a physics degree i deffo recommend. its got shit-tons of exercises all the way through.

the fuck is the point of these threads?

it's not enough to read books, you have to show off your taste because your taste doesn't stem from your perceptions and appreciation, no, it comes from your desire for approval even if that approval comes from an anonymous stranger you will never see, speak to, or influence in any way. You feel so insignificant that even this easy-access validation is enough to keep you from killing yourself, because you have shown an anonymous thong-licking imageboard your book collection, and by jove that's enough influence on society for today!

I will post title that are likely illegible. The first couple have a lot, sorry.
