Books

Here is a list of books I'm currently reading, thinking about reading or just read (along with some accompanying thoughts):

The Tipping Point - Re-read this for the 3rd time. It never gets stale and I always carry away something I hadn't held onto the time before.

How I Live Now - It's a YA book. It took me 2 tries to get past page 50. But I was rewarded once I did.

You're Wearing That? - Deborah Tannen is a linguist made famous by her book You Just Don't Understand in the 1980s. That book still holds up and now as she writes on daughters and mothers and the way the communicate. I see my own mother on more pages than not. Fascinating.

At the moment I'm whipping through two good folks I've been meaning to read: Buckminster Fuller (famous for Bucky Balls and the geodesic dome) and Robert Coles (known for his interviews with children and the aged).

I've already read Fuller's I Seem to Be a Verb, so I such add that.

I'm chewing slowly through A Beginner's Guide to Quantum Physics (oops, I almost wrote psychics. I'd read that book too if it existed). It's a great read but I haven't yet put in as much time as I need to if I'm going to walk away from the book with the concepts in my head.
