Book Description
J.W. Dunne's thought-provoking book, 'An Experiment with Time' delves into the realm of precognition and presents a groundbreaking theory of time known as "Serialism." Drawing on his own experiences, Dunne explores the phenomenon of precognitive dreams, where future personal events are foreseen by the dreamer. Building upon this foundation, he delves into the concept of multiple dimensions of time, each accompanied by a higher level of consciousness. Through his meticulous experiments and reflections, Dunne uncovers the intricacies of our perception of time, delving into the realms of past, present, and future.

Book Description
A New York Times Book Review Notable Book of the Year It was the year after Chappaquiddick, and all spring Carmel McBain had watery dreams about the disaster. Now she, Karina, and Julianne were escaping the dreary English countryside for a London University hall of residence. Interspersing accounts of her current position as a university student with recollections of her childhood and an ever difficult relationship with her longtime schoolmate Karina, Carmel reflects on a generation of girls desiring the power of men, but fearful of abandoning what is expected and proper. When these bright but confused young women land in late 1960s London, they are confronted with a slew of new preoccupations--sex, politics, food, and fertility--and a pointless grotesque tragedy of their own. Hilary Mantel's magnificent novel examines the pressures on women during the early days of contemporary feminism to excel--but not be too successful--in England's complex hierarchy of class and status.

Book Description
I can hear you asking, "What's the point of this letter, Dad?" Maybe the letter is just an experiment in time travel, an opportunity for you to reach back across the decades to know your father's heart and mind at a specific moment during your childhood. Or maybe it's about our collective identity: Who am I with you? Who am I apart from you? If I get lucky and die at a reasonable old age, you will be approximately the same age I am now when you finally read this. I like the symmetry of that possibility, especially if you have children, and you're in the throes of trying to be a not-so-terrible parent yourself.

Book Description
“What would happen if Harry met Sally in the age of Tinder and Snapchat? . . . A field guide to Millennial dating in New York City” (New York Daily News). When New York–based graphic designers and long-time friends Timothy Goodman and Jessica Walsh found themselves single at the same time, they decided to try an experiment. The old adage says that it takes forty days to change a habit—could the same be said for love? So they agreed to date each other for forty days, record their experiences in questionnaires, photographs, videos, texts, and artworks, and post the material on a website they would create for this purpose. What began as a small experiment between two friends became an Internet sensation, drawing five million unique (and obsessed) visitors from around the globe to their site and their story. 40 Days of Dating: An Experiment is a beautifully designed, expanded look at the experiment and the results, including a great deal of material that never made it onto the site, such as who they were as friends and individuals before the forty days and who they have become since.
