32-35: Finishing off 2011

32. Code Breakers: The Inside Story of Bletchley Park, edited by F. H. Hinsley & Alan Stripp
    Uneven, because of the many authors, but a fascinating history definitely worth reading.
    
33. The Arabian Nights, selected and edited by Daniel Heller-Roazen, translated by Husain Haddawy
    Excellent translation. I had been playing a lot of Tales of the Arabian Nights when I read this, and found many tales from the game to be taken directly from the, well, tales. Unsurprisingly, I suppose. I didn't have the patience to read all the critical essays, not even Borges's!
    
34. The Hut Six Story: Breaking the Enigma Codes, Gordon Welchman
    Excellent. Probably the clearest popular technical description of the deciphering effort.
    
35. Mathematical Apocrypha: Stories and Anecdotes of Mathematicians and the Mathematical, Steven G. Krantz
    What a disappointment. Terribly sourced, so the anecdotes do remain apocrypha. What a waste.
