Shocking Bad Form, Not Updating The Blog And All

I have some things in the works for this blog which aren't quite ready: teaching resources, specifically. These batches of very handy test questions I have up my sleeve. I promise to have those up by the end of the week. (There. Now I'm committed.) In the meantime, I have done something else. I uploaded pretty much all the illustrations in the book to a Flickr set. The illustrations began life as visual aids for my PPT slides for my large intro class, and I figure if anyone else wants to use them for that - well, go ahead. (I may be the only person in the world who can truly say that I learned to draw so I could use PPT.) Most of them aren't particularly pedagogically amenable - unless you were to adopt my book for classroom use, I suppose (hint! hint!) But others might be more generically useful to the Plato or philosophy instructor looking for clip art that isn't the usual wretched stuff.

I hereby resolve to be more useful to this blog. As Plato says, books are very helpless things, always crying on their authors for assistance when anyone asks a question. And this goes double for blogs, which aren't even written yet. Except for the relatively few, pitiful bits of them that have been written already.

John, I hadn't twigged that you had done the illustrations yourself. When did you learn to draw? I think they are very effective!

Thanks! Besides some intermittent doodling over the years, I didn't start drawing until I started teaching at NUS. I thought it would be fun to doodle stuff to use as illustrations for lecture slides. And it just became a habit and then a mild obsession.

Prof. Holbo,

Since you are giving people permission above to use your illustrations in Powerpoint slides, perhaps you should put them under one of the Creative Commons licenses on Flickr.
