Thought I would share a couple of recent book acquisitions:

Photographs from Congo, Mozambique, Angola and Madagascar.

This book is now out in paperback which means that we mere mortals can afford it. The hardcover version was published as 12 individual books, each with a different coloured cover. It works surprisingly well as just one volume.

The latest book by this busy danish photographer, this time he ventures into the danish countryside.

Photographs of abandoned railroads of the American west.

The author of what is probably my favourite website now has a book out.
“Every door is adorned with small speakers that emit white noise into the hallway. The annoying sound prevents passers-by from inadvertently over-hearing classified conversations going on inside.”
The base hosted a sort of petting zoo for high-tech jamming systems.
This project is a dream project attempting to connect two continents. In a wide sense, it includes building a tunnel or a bridge at both ends of the strait, extending an existing railways of the United States and Russia, and laying a world highway around the coasts of the world, which require a massive amount of construction.
