	Dust (His Dark Materials) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dust in Philip Pullman's trilogy of novels His Dark Materials is a fictional form of dark matter (as we call it in our world), an elementary particle that is of fundamental importance to the novels.
		Dust was previously known (in Lyra Belacqua's universe) as Rusakov particles after their discoverer, Boris Rusakov, and has other names in other worlds, including sraf (in the world of the mulefa).
		Another possibility is that in Buddhism the term "dust" is almost universally used to refer to the sensation, knowledge and entanglement with the world that inhibits enlightenment.

	1930' Dust Bowl
		"Dust Bowl" was a term born in the hard times from the people who lived in the drought-stricken region during the great depression.
		The methods of fighting the dust were as many and varied as were the means of finding a way to get something to eat and wear.
		Turbulent dust clouds rolled in generally from the North and dumped a fine silt over the land.

		Condition of a book is usually in the form of VG/VG, Fine/Good, VG/--, etc. The first part is the condition of the book, the second is the condition of the dust jacket.
		One way that the Book Clubs have marked their editions when they are otherwise identical to trade editions is to use a small square, round, or sometimes leaf-shaped blind stamp in the bottom right corner of the rear board.
		Occasionally, if the book club does not wish to do a separate edition they will have a publisher blind stamp the rear board and print a supply of dustwrappers without a price on the front flap and now without the bar code data on the rear panel.

	Independent Online Booksellers Association -- Glossary of Book Terms
		For instance, a book with a cloth spine and corners and covers of paper-covered boards is termed “Half-Cloth”; a book with a leather spine and corners and cloth or paper-covered boards is termed “Half-Leather”.
		Books are usually numbered such as "100/500" meaning number 100 of an edition of 500.
		Basically means that the book is in poor enough condition that whatever additional things you might find wrong with it that were not mentioned in the description are your tough luck and not a cause for return.

	Comments on 12431 \| Ask MetaFilter
		Given their position as book lovers, I can't see librarians doing that if there was any purpose to keeping them (aside from the look for those who prefer their books dressed).
		I don't view the dust jackets (particularly, as I mentioned, extra-colourful jackets on last-20-or-so-years books that are designed more to catch the attention of a buyer than to enhance the book itself with art or information) as a part of the essence of a book in most cases.
		If you prefer the look of the books minus their jackets, then the only good reason for you to keep them is, as others have said, if you want to consider your books as a collection with a potential resale value rather than as a library solely for reading.

		The Book of Dust is intended to be a companion to the His Dark Materials trilogy.
		Rumors about The Book of Dust practically date back to the publication of The Amber Spyglass in 2000, but Philip Pullman has set no possible publication dates and has worked on several separate projects in the interim.
		The Book of Dust is definitely in the process of being written - the press release of Lyra's Oxford mentions it by name - but there's no way to gauge how near it is to completion or when it will finally be published.

	His Dark Materials \| The Book of Dust \| BridgeToTheStars.Net
		Philip Pullman is working on a sort of companion novel to His Dark Materials, entitled "The Book of Dust." This will contain various short stories about many of the secondary characters in the series, such as Lee Scoresby and Serafina Pekkala.
		However, it appears from quotes and interviews that Pullman is merely using Lyra's Oxford as a bridge to a larger story with her in the Book of Dust.
		He has refered several times now to be "just starting" the book, each repetition of this several months down the line does not bode well for an early release.

	Weekend: Let this 'Book' gather dust
		When crass egotism evokes a smile and ethical bankruptcy is cause for mirth, Little Black Book may become a classic of romantic comedy.
		In Little Black Book, Stacy Holt (Brittany Murphy) uses her boyfriend’s absence to snoop into his privacy and misuse the information she gathers.
		Little Black Book doesn't seem to like women much, which is surprising since two women collaborated on the screenplay.

		Hershey, the nation's largest candy maker, filed a federal lawsuit nearly two weeks ago seeking an injunction to bar Simon and Schuster from using Hershey-owned images to market the book, which is slated to be released in January.

		The book covers the life of Milton S. Hershey, who built the company into a manufacturing behemoth and used his wealth to endow what is today a multibillion-dollar trust devoted to the health and education of children.

	Searchers Trilogy by Chet Williamson (Book Review, Skeptical Briefs June 2000)
		The basic premise of the series is that three CIA operatives, who, unbeknownst to themselves, are asked by a rogue CIA director to investigate paranormal activities and claims and not to find out the truth, but to debunk them and send him reports regarding these claims.
		Williamson's series, in an attempt to sell books, does have unexplainable elements and characters that have extraordinary "powers." In his letter, Williamson points out that this is what the editors wanted when he made the deal with them.
		He was also able to add the skeptical elements to these fictional works, and the works are therefore unlike other works that are entirely "pro-paranormal." I do not have a problem with Williamson's series as fiction that tries to teach skeptical principles and skepticism, and that skepticism is a good thing.

		John Fante's most famous novel, "Ask the Dust", is an act of bravura for a writer, since it deals with this profession's struggles until he/she becomes a successful author.
		Harper Perennial's P.S. edition of "Ask the Dust" is highly recommended since it has many especial features at the back of the book, such as writer's biography, letters and excepts from his novels.
		The book is as bleak and hopeless as death itself.

		From what PP's been saying at various signings and in interviews, the book of dust will have quite a bit of background information on Dust, and the Subtle Knife, and how it was made, etc. And a bit on Spectres too.
		Will the book of dust feature Lyra and Wills lives after they had to go back to their own worlds.
		Not to burst bubbles, but: No, figuratively (I assume, anyway), and as for maps, for our world the book is probably 100% realistic, and Lyra's I believe is accurate apart from some Oxford names (a map of Lyra's Oxford would, perhaps, be cool).
