		<description><![CDATA[I picked up Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood this summer and slowly worked my way through most of it, only to leave it lying unattended by my bedside for months. Not that it isn’t a gripping tale. The non-fiction, which details the murder of a family of four in rural Kansas, often has the same [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Plenty of critics have assailed the authors of SuperFreakonomics for their take on climate change in the fifth chaper. Elizabeth Kolbert, writing for The New Yorker, brilliantly turned their own take on horse manure in the book&#8217;s beginning against them. Perhaps the best takedown and analysis of the furor is over at Foreign Policy, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished Superfreakonomics by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner, last week but, with the president&#8217;s visit and increasing election coverage, haven&#8217;t had time yet to give you an update. So here it comes, though I&#8217;m not going to review it, per se. As you may know, the book&#8217;s stirred some controversy because the scientist quoted [...]]]></description>

Reid&#8217;s efficiently informative book I grabbed &#8220;Every Patient Tells a Story,&#8221; by Connecticut physician Dr. Lisa Sanders. Sanders does not dive into the health care debate. Instead, she details the topic she consults [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m still working on finishing SuperFreakonomics and offering my take, but I wanted to weigh in on one thing quickly: I&#8217;m not sure what this book offers that&#8217;s new.  Unfortunately for the authors, their own success might be the problem. I&#8217;ve mentioned their blog before, but they have also helped launch the writing career of [...]]]></description>

I wanted to have a review for you by tomorrow, when it&#8217;s due to go on sale, and I&#8217;m oh-so-close to having it done. First, I wanted to [...]]]></description>

Even more importantly, Evans has brought to the surface a little-known, but highly divisive debate over the potential use of methane [...]]]></description>
