About My Library
A mix of books, many about science (in particular physics and entomology) or computer programming, as well as fiction and things that just took my fancy.

It has been acquired through a reluctance to throw way, give away or sell books that I have bought or been given. You never know when you might need to check a fact or want to re-read a particular chapter. Some sections of the library have been donated by friends and family.

I have a particular fondness for old science books and a weakness for second-hand book shops, charity shops, library slaes, etc.
About Me
I work on cybertaxonomy projects and orthopteroid insects.
