that's when u decide to keep them, since books are an invaluable resource. If you have a book in your possession, it is like you have a bit piece of knowledge that nobody can change. It is YOUR. Your personal piece of the world.
but maybe that is just my attitude, as i have the higest respect for books and come form a country, where it has been just a little over 60 years since people burnt books... |
books are one thing textbooks are another.. |

Greg- our majors are totally different areas so your books do you differently than mine did,... you are engineering or something of the like, i am/was Geography, mine are all mostly factual and sometimes seem as if they are just one big glossary,.. my notes on the other hand are what i use to refer to if i need to look something up,... im sure your's are all filled with formulas and theories,... i could be wrong i dunno, i didnt take many or any of those classes...
but just for my 1st 2 years at school i took a lot of bs gen. ed classes, like nutrition, history, wildlife, theater,... those books serve me no purpose, so i sold them back... |
