STORY BUNDLE - a clutch of six books (including THE SELECT by yours truly) for whatever you want to pay. Offer $8 or more and you'll get 2 extra novels. A mix of newbies and NYT bestsellers. You can even buy gift cards - a great gift for people getting e-readers for Christmas. Even if you've read THE SELECT, this is a win-win proposition.

Please read this article. I find it rather disturbing but maybe that's just me.

Sorry, but I don't know how to post an article so I've had to put it as a link.

If our host should happen to read it as well then Dr Wilson I would be especially grateful for your opinion. To me it just feels wrong, but then you look at the sums of money involved and I have to ask myself if I would do any different?

Some websites are saying that the villain will be Khan. I've seen one that says that it will be Gary Mitchell. I'm wondering why it must be someone from the old series.

Is anyone else excited about this? Yeah its going to be strange that it will be in three movies and I've accepted the fact that I probably will not see Smaug in the first film, but it still looks like it will be very good.

Hey All!

New to the site and the forums. I'm a US high school social studies teacher and have been a fan of FPW works for a very long time. When I first read EotS I found that it explained basic concepts of free market capitalism in very easy to understand ways. I've been keeping in the back of my mind for a long time that it would be fun to include the text as a required reading for my econ classes, but I'm not entirely sure how to fit it into the curriculum. I'm kind of looking for some help along these lines. Specifically:

~Is there already 'out there' a teaching syllabus for the book?
~I'd like some involved questions for the reading, what would be a few good examples?
~Apart from quizzes, worksheets, and essay questions, what do you suggest for other assessments?
(I had been thinking about maybe having some of the students act out skits)
~Would it be better as a paper text or e-book?
(Potential costs are important, as are ability to 'loan' copies and possession rights)
~Your general thoughts on this matter are all helpful!

I appreciate any and all assistance on this!
