### News Of The Week

Welcome to this week’s issue of the Books And Articles newsletter.  Thanks again for all of the quality posts. This week I posted the [Book Reviews Directory 11/23-3/24](https://stacker.news/items/489224). You can find all of the book reviews that have been posted to this territory prior to March 31, 2024. I anticipate that SN will soon permit perpetual edits, so at that point I will keep that post updated with new reviews. I will also categorize the directory by genres as it grows.  

Due to the sheer number of quality posts this week, I am sure I missed placing a few original content posts into the index sections of the newsletter. I simply ran out of time. I promise to try my best to catch up this week.

Thanks again to everyone for helping this territory grow into what we want it to be.

I hope everyone has a good week. 

### Top Five Posts Of The Week

The top post of the week will be forwarded 50% of the zaps earned on this week’s newsletter post. Rankings will be determined using the SN zaprank. 

Here are this week’s top posts:

- [“Fear Of A Black Flag” Alan Moore’s 2010 Essay On Anarchy](https://stacker.news/items/490704) by @StillStackinAfterAllTheseYears

### Siggy’s Suggestions

- [From Shells To Satoshi: The Story Of Money](https://stacker.news/items/492465) by @Roll

This is a link post from @Roll announcing the release of a new bitcoin book. Like most here, a new bitcoin book always piques my interest. I hope someone does a book review soon so we can learn more about it. 

- [Blood Money: Meet the Top 20 Companies Profiting From Endless War](https://stacker.news/items/492357) by @DarthCoin

I found this article both informative and sad. I wasn’t aware of a few of the companies listed here.  I am very aware of another.  My wife’s family has a long tradition of working for one of these companies. It has put food on the table for three generations while building technological marvels and weapons of war. 

[Releasing Chronicles of the Code Guardians - A Bitcoin journey](https://stacker.news/items/486568) by @eddieoz

The author announced the publication of his latest book, a science fiction work about bitcoin. I am not much of a science fiction guy myself, but I know there are plenty of stackers here with the chops to give this book a look and post a review. I look forward to reading more about its post publication progress. Welcome, @eddieoz, to SN and to our territory!

- [What book format do you prefer to read?](https://stacker.news/items/491669) by @Taft

This post was timely for me, since I was questioning the usefulness of poll posts recently. @Taft showed us here that they can be useful and engaging- 29 votes and 14 comments on an important topic.

Fountain 1.0 Has Arrived!

Can’t wait for the part about insider trading, hiring the hacking team, selling customer data to governments for spying, or the rampant intellectual dishonesty involved in running a shitcoin casino.
