SYNOPSIS: Krugman recommends a strange book review/intellectual essay about him in September's Harper's

Love me or hate me, you probably want to pick up a copy of the September issue of Harper's; it's not on the web, and I don't know when or if it will be. The issue contains a book review, sort of, by Lee Siegel; the two books reviewed are my pamphlet Fuzzy Math and a book titled The Attack Queers, by Richard Goldstein. As Superman would say, "What th'?" But you might be able to guess what it's about - though somehow Susan Sontag is also a major player.

Anyway, in happier times Mr. Siegel and I would probably find many things to disagree about. But it's nice to see that someone understands what I'm trying to do.
