Reading List

As part of this Learning Log I intend to develop a record of my own reading list which will be updated as and when.
 I will where possible 'review' all books read as well as comment on any practical learning, e.g. how has reading Desperate Romantics helped me appreciate the art work of the Pre-Raphaelites when I next visit the Liverpool Galleries?

As and when comments/reviews/learning about or from a particular book is incorporated into a 'blog entry' I will highlight the title in the list below
