I tried, but the nearest book to me is ‘INDIA the Showstopper’ by Kerry Argent, a story about a mouth-organ playing elephant that learns to rollerskate in order to save her circus career. It’s only got 32 pages.

Well I’m not going to post this on my blog given the nature of it being business related.. but I’ll hijack your site for it instead

“In those circumstances, the participants relied totally on retinal image size in their judgements of object size.”

That would be from Principles of Cognitive Psychology by Michael W. Eysenck. There doesn’t seem much point in nominating people within your blog…
