Posting by chapters is a good idea (for anything with a chapter, at least -- we'll worry about poetry collections and what-have-you when we get there). However, since I'm nearly done with chapter 4 and this post is supposed to be written up yesterday, not today, I figured I should get a little lee way with this post.
Also, I can't resist quoting this bit:
"We all know the apocryphal story. Galileo dropped two objects of unequal weight (most likely graduate students) from the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and noticed that they both hit the ground at the same time."
I have the vague memory that this is not the first time the author's alluded to grad student abuse. Anyone get the impression that he might not be too happy with his?
(It makes me think about how fortunate I am to be going into the field of biology, and not physics.)

I definitely laughed at that and it was definitely not the first time (though it was the most unexpected- and thus funniest, I think).
It's probably less to do with his current grad students and his own experience as one :P
