Fin Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 "Star Trek Memories," William Shatner. It was a good read! No--really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peelingchrome Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Nothing, I have finished everything I checked out from the library. Any good suggestions???? (Please ) Depends on what you're into. For sci/fi I like Orson Scott Card and William Gibson. For fantasy I like Robin Hobb, C.S. Friedman, and George R. R. Martin. I found an old copy of "Service Etiquette" from '67 recently that was quaint and fun. For poetry, I love Dylan Thomas. The CIA World Factbook has helped me sleep better than whiskey ever has! I recently finished the Black Jewels Trilogy and was enthralled. How's that for a few suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Spiral (13) Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Current issue of Discover, slowly. (by design) Not really reading any books at the moment despite what my sig says. The one i started got stolen if you can believe that. Haven't really had the motivation to get the thing again nor start a different book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Az_ Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Aside from the usual mags I read (New Scientist, Scientific American, Scientific American Mind, Skeptic, Skeptical Inquirer, not much of a trend there) I am slowly coursing my way through Dawkins' God Delusion and Bert Ehrman's Misquoting Jesus. re Dawkins... its definitely preaching to the choir. And he dips into the emotional name calling a bit too often (he seems to lack compassion or empathy for theists) but he does offer a good book detailing the dominate arguments used by theists and the standard counters offered by atheists. Good to read for both sides if you are not familiar with the standard fair on the religious battlefield. Misquoting Jesus is an excellent book detailing the troubles of determining what the bible actually is supposed to say. With all the hands it has passed through its not just a matter of mistakes creeping in via editors. A lot of times changes are made deliberately in order to bring the text more into view with the particular editors view of things. Ehrman first explains the basics of textual criticism and then takes the reader on a tour of some of the more interesting finds via ancient manuscripts we have come to find.

taysteewonderbunny Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 September issue of "Poetry" and, for class, The Vintage Book of Contemporary Short Stories edited by Tobias Wolff. I think the title is a little paradoxical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
