I know it's November, but I can't help but think that Lewis Carroll's
     ALICE books were the great-granddaddy of them all in terms of
     non-linear thinking. And he a mathematician! And Victorian too.
     
     Which suggests we have long been able to process non-linear
     information. It is something we have to do to make sense of our
     existence. We choose to impose order within books because we can't
     impose order on life.
