At Cliopatria, Ralph Luker points us to Scott McLemee's profile of George Scialabba (and his newly published book of essays) in Inside Higher Ed.--and to what Rick Perlstein calls Scialabba's "masterpiece": "Message from Room 101."

In reading the essay Message from Room 101, I agree that it is indeed powerful and well written, marred only by its naive views about how easily redistributive economics can work.

Scialabba fans: Is there another essay of his that is both online and worth reading?
