Given the bibliophile that I am, the space for books always tends to fill up…
There are about 15 more boxes to arrive, and the shelf is already overflowing, (there are two more which are full)….
All randomly placed, no classification, still pending due to my procrastination.
How many Mir books you can identify? And how many of these you have?
And behind these there is another row of books already!
PS: I hope I do not become a bibliomaniac any time soon!
Beautiful!

Most of the books are collected over many years from towns I have been to. Most of them are used ones mostly from raddi walas or I got at very cheap prices from book fairs, sales etc. Some of the books I have read, but definitely not all. Think of it more like a personal reference library. You can mail me at the.mitr@gmail.com

I liked your links to the words bibliophile and, bibliomaniac. I hope we all tame our expansionary tendencies and channel them into productive and focus ends. Btw, procrastinating the arranging of the books may be something to keep. Organization shouldn’t be a goal by itself esp. when it get in the way.

At a 5x zoom ,I think the top 2 rows doesn’t contain any mir books,third row (from top) I can find the tales about metals,in 4th row a book is there besides classical mechanics,and a lot of them can be found on last row having a stack of mir books.Taking the count is a bit difficult.!

Hi there!
Do you happen to have “Fundamentals of electricity” by F E Ekdokimov? I´ve been looking for it for a long while, but unfortunately haven´t been able to find it.
Thanks! Bye!

There is no author by that name afaik, perhaps you meant Evdokimov. I know about the book, but it is not with us right now.

You´re right, it´s Evdokimov (for some reason, I keep misspelling it!). Several people told me it´s a great source to study magnetic circuits.
Well, guess I´ll keep on searching. Thank you for your fast answer.
Goodbye!
