Below is an inexhaustive list of books I own. Please note my ownership of a book is not necessarily an endorsement of its ideas.
Also note that I nearly exclusively buy books second-hand from op shops and book exchanges.
Specific topics of interest that I actively seek books about include mathematics, physics, computer science, Christian theology, classic literature, and cyberculture.
