Seen Elsewhere

Tony Keen at Memorbilia Antonina has a longer (and better) review of The Dream of Rome. The last sentence is sheer genius.

Will at Nomadic Thoughts has Praise (bordering on obsession) for The Ancient Maya, Sixth Edition. I’ll try and get it added to the department’s to buy list.

John Hawks has a post on the problems with peer review, commenting on the article at The Scientist. I think the Trireme Veterans for Truth were right, a properly funded Scoop-based website or similar could radically change how we use ICT in the humanities.

Finally Laputan Logic has the first funny comment I’ve read on those cartoons.
