1421: The Year China Discovered the World.

A bit dry, but very interesting nonetheless. These guys made Columbus and Magellan look like idiots.

 

[KnickNut3]

Modern Physics (Bernshaw)
Engineering Mathematics (O'Neil)
Microeconomics (Nechyba)
Probability (Pitman)

And, once in a blue moon, The Complete Book of Poker (Carson)... looking to get my hands on Lee Jones or Sklansky

Oh, and book on tape for when working out (the closest I get to fun reading this time of year)... just finished Da Vinci Code, will probably start Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (or Postmortem by Cornwell)

 

[lokiju]

intensity - Dean Koontz.

Its not that good IMO so far its moving really slow and he goes into way to much detail about environments and inner thoughts of his characters.

Are those school books?

 

[cKGunslinger]

I just finshed Koontz's "One Door Away From Heaven" (pretty good) and am about to start on King's"Dark Tower VII", albeit a bit hesitantly. I *really* don't wan t this series to end, it's been a part of my life for years..

 

[MithShrike]

I just finished Beyond Heaven's River by Greg Bear.

Weaveworld is a cute little story, personally I would recommend The Great and Secret Show if you haven't already read it. Those books were great.

 

[Bryophyte]

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.

Think I'll re-read a few Tom Robbins books next.

 

[vi edit]

The Bear and the Dragon - Tom Clancy.

I'm on a Clancy kick. It's great reading fodder for long layovers and plane flights.

Can't flame anyone for reading, it's becoming a lost art... even if it is a book you'd have to pay me, and quite a bit at that, to read

 

[abaez]

Blankets by Craig Thompson.

Absolutely beautiful graphic novel.

 

[Wuffsunie]

The Salmon of Doubt by Douglas Adams.
I'm only about half way through, but it just reinforces the idea that those who deserve it rarely live as long as they should, while other people shouldn't even get half the life they have DNA died way, way too soon.

 

[jadinolf]

The Bible.
