Islamic science and the long siesta Robert Irwin TLS

He has an agreeably caustic and aggressive approach to outdated and erroneous ideas about the history of science. The book is a polemical essay, rather than a history, and welcome as such.

Marilynne Robinson: world’s best writer of prose - Times Online

“The assumptions of realism as it has been practised are simply wrong. People bring a great deal of memory and also a sense of present experience to everything that they do. If you see someone doing a simple action like hanging sheets on a line, there is absolutely no reason in that person’s perception that there is anything simple about it at all. I have all the respect in the world for reality, but I think the general assumptions about it are wrong.”

Chris Moyles radio show 'encourages binge drinking' - The Times 5th September 2008

The BBC's Chris Moyles has been highlighted in a government-funded report as encouraging binge drinking with some of his on-air dialogue.

Research into 1,200 hours of radio output found that many DJs use language that celebrates excessive drinking and one show was entitled “The Morning After” with the jingle “If you’re hungover from the night before, listen to Tim and Kate”.
