The wonder of small books, part II

Knowledge for those with short attention spans (or busy lives):

Oxford University Press, eminent among the estimable houses, publishes a series of volumes called "Very Short Introductions."

The title list reads like a college catalog, without the tuition freight.

Another cudgel against illiteracy.

OUP has a great blog, too.
