1. # Paper Comments/Remarks
1 Science and Statistics
By George E.P Box
"All models are wrong, but some are useful" is attributed to him. Neat examples and anecdotes. It
lead me to an equally interesting work of Darrell Huff, MJ Moroney
2 Managing Oneself
By Peter F Drucker
Management guru outlines, among various critical stuff, how to figure out if bosses are readers or
listeners and advises us to adapt for effectiveness accordingly. Since one cannot customize the boss
this paper should be part of campus induction training material. I learnt much later!
3 Text of Moon Speech by JFK Heavily influenced by one of my teachers who used to often quote this speech for bold vision,
nuanced sense of humour and leadership articulation.
4 More is different
By Phil Anderson
My friend who shared this explained it before handing over the printout- else he knew I would have
lost the import of this. It argues that reductionism may not be good enough to address all scientific
approaches. The ending conversation is as cinematic as "Gone with the wind" - hence I use the last
portion alone
5 Why future doesn't need us?
By Bill Joy
When a proven techie is uneasy about a set of technologies, you get a little apprehensive and try to
take notice of it. It is a long read and full of de-tours. But, overall keeps you aware of the flip side of
the coin.
6 Can a biologist fix the radio?
By Y.lisebnik
How to validate an approach or methodology? This paper answers that pesky question well. Some of
the observations he raises transcends many domains. It is great reference article.
7 Content is not the king
By Andrew Odlyzko
When, the then prevailing Wisdom was "Content is THE king", I really liked this devil's advocate
paper. In my view, it had great data points set as well as strong views on the other way around.
8 The feeling of power
By Isaac Asimov
Took AI as electives long back just for novelty and chanced upon this story. Frankly, it was too weird
for me at that time. Just by reading it again now, many strands are relatively clear from at least on
Philosophical angle. Futuristic, Poignant and evocative whenever you check back this counter
intuitive tragic story.
