The Wild Librarian

"You see, I don't believe that libraries should be drab places where people sit in silence, and that's been the main reason for our policy of employing wild animals as librarians." --Gorilla Librarian sketch, Monty Python's Flying Circus TV Show, Episode 10

Book of the Week: Blink by: Malcolm Gladwell

Read this book! It will open your eyes to the ways of the human mind.

How does a snap judgment impact your life? Are you able to look at something and know there is a problem but cannot put a finger on exactly what? Are you able to tell when someone is intentionally trying to deceive you? If so then you may be using the part of your adaptive unconscious to make decisions.

intriguing and very informative. I plan on looking into the things and people he referred to; Such as the face experts Silvan Tomkins and Paul Ekman.
