{The Principles of Uncertainty}
I've recently read and enjoyed Maira Kalman's new book (based on her NY Times blog) The Principles of Uncertainty. The book is a mix of imaginative and moving illustrations, in which she reflects on life, love, and death. The Principles of Uncertainty is both poignant and funny.
