ATG Book of the Week March 28, 2011

In Praise of Copying by Marcus Boon. Cambridge, Mass, Harvard University Press, 2010. 285 pages 978-0-674-0478-3-9

I am looking forward to reading this book (in print, I might add) while I am waiting in the airport for airplanes. Boon says that copying is part of how the universe functions and that we could not be human without it. In this book he explores the fear of and fascination with copying. Looking forward to it!
