Okay, you regular readers know that my interest is Peanuts books, foreign as well as domestic. And you know that my madness is book editions of A Charlie Brown Christmas. Up until now, the “foreign” part of my interest had not collided with the madness. As far as I could …

There is psychological economics concept called “loss aversion”, which relates (as I loosely understand it) to the idea that we feel certain sort of economic losses far more than we feel gains; that you will remember that time you filled up and a minute later saw a gas station that …

The latest addition to the AAUGH.com Reference Library is The Graphic Art of Charles, the book for a 1985 exhibition at The Oakland Museum (which then traveled through nine other museums through 1988). Now, if that title sounds a little odd to you, well, it may be unique. Every other …
