Pedantry and mastery are opposite attitudes toward rules. To apply a rule to
the letter, rigidly, unquestioningly, in cases where it fits and in cases
where it does not fit, is pedantry... To apply a rule with natural ease,
with judgment, noticing the cases where it fits, and without ever letting
the words of the rule obscure the purpose of the action or the opportunities
of the situation, is mastery. -George Polya, professor of mathematics
(1887-1985)

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] looking for THE person who requestedA Changed Man,
by Francine Prose
Somebody at some point in the past requested the novel in the subject
line.It's "a good-natured satire of liberal pieties, the radical right
and the fund-raising world. The "changed man" of the title is Vincent
Nolan, a 32-year-old tattooed ex-skinhead who appears one morning in the
New York offices of World Brotherhood Watch, a foundation headed by Meyer
Maslow, a Holocaust survivor." I thought it sounded like something Roger
might be interested in scanning, but he says books he scans sits in the
download pile forever, so he's pretty much just proofing now. I don't
have the requester's name on my list of requesters (the novel was
requested months ago; it's a wish I transferred from one of the old lists.
If no one's interested in scanning or proofing it I'll delete it from the
wish list.
