Perhaps...

     I've been looking around at potential books for the class for second quarter, because while The Talent Code seems perfectly interesting, it also seems to be almost exactly the same as Outliers. Of course, that's kind of what the teachers want us to read, but I figured we could at least get a book with a better title. 

Bounce: Mozart, Federer, Picasso, Beckham, and the Science of Success by Matthew Syed

The Wisdom of Psychopaths: What Saints, Spies, and Serial Killers Can Teach Us About Success by Kevin Dutton

Quarter 1: Outliers

In-class analysis and applications of the concepts addressed in our first quarter required reading book, Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell.

Elementary, my dear self.

     Non-Euclidean geometry is defined as any geometry in which the parallel postulate is not true, which tends to occur in elliptical and hyperbolic planes (as opposed to flat ones, of course), hence the two main geometries within the non-Euclidean ones (geometry-ception, eh?), aptly named elliptical and hyperbolic geometry. The parallel postulate can refer to Euclid's fifth postulate (If a straight line falls on two straight lines in such a manner that the interior angles on the same side are together less than two right angles, then the straight lines, if produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which are the angles less than the two right angles) or Playfair's axiom (Through any point in a plane, there is at most one straight line parallel to a given straight line).
