I miss C-SPAN's Booknotes. It was one of my favorite shows on television. It's replacement, Q&A, is a dud. (George Bush is the guest tomorrow). Maybe it will get better.
An author I'd have liked to see on Booknotes is Malcolm Gladwell. I enjoyed his first book, The Tipping Point (The New Yorker article it's based on is here) and look forward to reading the just released Blink.
One of my first posts, Everything's Derivative, was about another New Yorker article of his, the thought-provoking Something Borrowed: Should a charge of plagiarism ruin your life? I'll have another Malcolm post later today.
