This week's set of links to the reviews of literature cited below; perhaps a few more less than stellar examples, by the reviewers' reckoning, than usual, but no lack of gems (some less obscured than others, to be sure!). Patti Abbott will be back on the gathering stick next week. Happy post-Tday, USians, and for that matter our Britons and Canadians and our token (I think sole) Australian and Indian (one each) this week...and to all you readers, with thanks to everyone.

I hope you will permit me to be presumptive enough to include the link to my inaugural FFB posting:

Thanx!
Glad to have it, Tim...but I thought you'd done some previously, as well...
New blog with new focus and new commitment. Onward!
