Guest SKYSCRAPER Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 ^I've started that, haven't read it for a while though.Yeah, there's quite a lot to get through.Good to just pick up & read the odd chapter now & again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's That Kid Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 Probably because Gilroy is an academic, which means loads of unnecessary chapters. Anyone who's read Black Atlantic (or attempted to) will know what I mean.Richard Feynman is probably the best academic-cum-author because he makes it digestible.
