"No Logo" - Rather 'textbooky' but very informative, and makes you never want to buy Nike or Gap or Old Navy ever again.

"The Kennedy Curse" - Was a former bestseller on sale for $4.99. Polished it off in about 2 days.

Currently reading "Scandal: A scurrilous History of Gossip". I'll let you know how it is another time when I'm further into it.

Originally posted by Durafei So what are some of the good non-fiction books are you reading/read before ? I've just got my copy of Psychology of Persuasion by Robert Cialdini, and so far it's sounds really industry. And if you are in the software industry, then I really recommend reading Joel on Software , which is basically a collection of short articles from www.joelonsoftware.com

I read psychology of persuasion... pretty good book.

I mostly read business and spiritual books, and I am very well versed in both topics and know the best of the best.

For Business:
Anything by Robert Kiyosaki
Good to Great by Jim Collins
The Seven Day Weekend by Ricardo Semlar

If you are into metaphysics/cosmos/spiritual stuff:
The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire by Deepak Chopra
Anything by Alan Watts
The power of Now by Eckhart Tollee

man oh man

I used to read tomes when I was younger....before the partying began. I think I should definately take a trip to the Library sometime...

get me away from staring at a PC for a little while anyway!

"The bad guys won" The story of the 85 Mets. Amazing read for sports fans.

Reading "Fast Food Nation" by Eric Schlosser for class. I like his writing style.

When that's done, moving on to finishing "Last Night a DJ Saved My Life" by Bill Brewster and Frank Broughton.

Next up on the list is "Reefer Madness" by Eric Schlosser

Then maybe a book on politics. Depends how I feel.

My girlfriend got me "The Corporation" by Joel Bakan. It's a very interesting read. It talks about how Corporations have grown to be the dominant unit in society, even more powerful than governments, and the pros and cons of things like regulation, privatization, etc. It makes a good, well-backed-up case... no left-wing bullshit either.
