The esteem of one's favorite authors is truly the sweetest prize. @charlesmann.bsky.social (1491, 1493, etc.) is a maestro, and holy crap this makes my day!

Last night I read again a chunk of "Fire Weather" by @johnvaillant.bsky.social to check my notes against his reporting and holy crap this is a superb book--a vivid portrait of one of the most fascinating, least known, most important places in North America: northern Alberta. Strong recommend.

ungarischer Chirurg, Geburtshelfer & Begründer der evidenzbasierten Medizin.

Dénoncé par ses collègues, il meurt le 13 août 1865 dans un asile psychiatrique.
