Oh, and I bet the Colonials would have given their right arm to have had this book:

“How To Survive A Robot Uprising”

Could prove useful to Cavil too.

Wow, the only one I have read off that list–Guns, Germs, and Steel–isn’t even science fiction related (though some see Diamond’s arguments about the role of geography in history to be science fiction).

The only one on the list that I’ve read is Cosmos. I think I’ll look for “How to Survive a Robot Uprising” just so that I’ll have read 2 of them. Nice even number. :slight_smile:
