Can you do the splits?
What's the last book you read?
How would you describe your parents?
Okay...
1.No, but at one time I thought I could (aged 7 or so). Turned out I wasn't really doing it properly and I was pretty gutted.
2.The last book I read was Disciplining Feminism: From Social Activism to Academic Discourse by Ellen Messer-Davidow. Off-dissertation the last book I read was the latest Harry Potter.
3. My Dad: Intellectual, Good hearted.
My Mum: Kind, Funny, Engaging, Insightful, a wonderful friend and mother.

What'd you think of the Messer-Davidow book? I bought it for a class once, then the prof. decided not to use it. I still have it. Any chapter in particular you'd recommend if I don't have time to read the whole thing?
Clancy - It's an interesting text, and might resonate even more with you as it is quite specific to the US education system. If you don't have time to read the whole thing then I would recommend you read the Introduction 'Knowing and Doing' as it's very thought provoking in itself (I particularly enjoy theory that is grounded in personal experience so this could just be my preference) and then you could dip into Parts 1 & 2 - it is too difficult to choose specific chapters as there is a lot covered in each (I skimmed and stopped where something caught my eye, skimmed again and stopped again, though I did a lot of stopping!). But do read the last section 'Crystallizing the Future' if you have time.
I wish I had had more time with this text myself as needs dictate I move quickly at the momoment. It's certainly one I'll come back to.
