Brief Lives: Twentieth-century Pen Portraits from the Dictionary of National Biography
Drawn from the archives of the Dictionary of National Biography, this collection of sharply drawn portraits offers a rich cross-section of the men and women who shaped Britain's identity in the twentieth century. The DNB is an unrivalled record of modern British thought and achievement, combining critical insight with lively prose, entertaining anecdotes, and private data. Brief Lives contains many of the best articles from the twentieth-century supplements to the DNB, collected for the first time in a single, affordable volume. Both insightful and witty, and sometimes surprisingly frank, these are definitive, diverse, and often intimate biographical sketches--most were written by people who knew their subjects personally.
Here, writers, artists, and musicians rub shoulders with scientists, industrialists, politicians, and soldiers in a unique and highly readable anthology of national endeavour. From Laura Ashley to P.G. Wodehouse, from Tony Hancock to Bertrand Russell, Brief Lives presents no fewer than 150 fresh and enlightening snapshots of British life and culture in modern times.

In Memory of H. A. SIMON
( A mail to Learning Organization Forum on Learning and Teaching Styles )
Last weekend I read The Economist 'Obituary' on Herbert Simon（1916-2001）.
http://www.economist.com/
(please help us to locate as many information as possible.)
I started to write my own series of appreciation for this great learner, scientist and educator. One theme we discussed several years ago is about this subject. If you like to read his Models of My Life (MoML) and Sciences of the Artificial (SoA), there are plenty insights on this important subject.
For example, I quoted his "In the Afterword I reflect on the methods I have used in my research...if permitted, I will stay at this pleasurable, exciting work a while longer."( MoML, please also see his learning and teaching journey.)
He defines the 'style' in SoA, together with Marshall's Economics textbook and so on.
It is difficult to tell the nuance of this subject but you might like to read his quote of Paul Valery's Instants( ...As one speaks to the closest one.) in MoML.
I didn't meet Herb but we knew our own learning styles through emails partially at least.
Herb knows Chinese and we know the meaning of 'history' , Words, Deeds, and Worth of an evergreen life and his theories in sciences.
