A NEW CHAPTER...
An announcement from the store's owner...
After many weeks of speculation about the future of The Elliott Bay Book Company, I am now able to confirm that the book store will be moving to a new location on Capitol Hill in the spring of next year.
 The past two years have been a difficult, painful period of exploring and evaluating possibilities in an attempt to determine what would be best—and necessary—to ensure the long-term health and vitality of the store. And while the thought, and the practicalities, of moving from the site and the locale which have been home for the past 36 years are daunting to say the least, I am convinced that this upcoming relocation will afford us the best opportunity to remain, and further develop as a thriving enterprise.

OUR BOOK OF THE WEEK...
Why Does E=mc2?
by Brian Cox & Jeff Forshaw (Da Capo)
These respected professors lead the lay reader through Einstein's most famous equation with aptitude and humor. Using a myriad of examples—from light clocks to concubines to motorcycles (and some math)—we are introduced to heady concepts not only of mass, energy, and relativity, but to momentum conservation, causality and space-time. The ultimate goal of the book is not just providing an understanding of the elegance of the equation but how our understanding of its principles applies to larger understandings of how our universe works. This book is an excellent primer for anyone with a curiosity into physics. -Holly
