#veryshortintroductions are so perfect for filling the glaring gaps in one‘s knowledge base...

And very helpful for background information to complement one‘s reading...

SailorMoon Does it have a philosophycal point of view or more like historical and political? Seems interesting 5y
AlaMich @SailorMoon The way I would describe the VSI series is that they fill a niche between reading a Wikipedia article about a topic and reading a full-on scholarly book. They‘re written by experts in whatever field, but they don‘t (or shouldn‘t) have a POV. 5y
SailorMoon @AlaMich thanks for explaining! I added it to my TBR! 5y
AlaMich @SailorMoon According to the back of this one, the series comprises 209 VSIs on everything from The Roman Empire to Logic to Autism, in case you want to learn all the things! 😉 (edited) 5y
SailorMoon I have to look them up and see if they're available in my Country, I'm not sure... I hope they are!!! Thanks!!! 5y
