Re: [AlwaysLearning] Adult learning
[email protected]
I would like to second a posting from a while ago. I love children's books
on learning new subjects. I realize that most children's books will not talk
about the philosophy behind math and numbers.
Lately when I am interested in learning a little about a subject, I tend to
head to the children's non-fiction section. If I have further interest, I'll
go back to the adult section and follow up.
