About Mike’s Library

“I was bold in the pursuit of knowledge, never fearing to follow truth and reason to whatever results they led, and bearding every authority which stood in their way.”
– Thomas Jefferson

You can access my own collection of documents that I have used in much of my research in Mike’s Library. However, it is by no means all inclusive. I present it here in the hope that others may find it of use in their own research. Some of these documents can be downloaded. Others are referenced. Yet others you will have to purchase or search out on the Internet.

While the Internet is an amazing research too, not everything on the Internet is true nor does it always pass critical analysis. In other words, nothing beats a good personal library.

Miscellaneous Books, Reports & Papers

“Not only in research, but in the everyday world of politics and economics, we would all be better off if more people realized that simple systems do not necessarily possess simple dynamical properties.”

– Robert May
Mathematical Ecologist (1976)

“Our house is on fire. These have been a bad few months for journalism. We are getting the big stories wrong over and over again…Never before in human history has more information been available to more people. But at the same time, never before in human history has more bad information been available to more people. In a world where everyone is a publisher no one is an editor and that is the danger we face today…Twitter, Facebook and Reedit is not journalism, that’s gossip…If you are first no one will ever remember, but if you are wrong, no one will ever forget.”
