[Wayne.Smart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Recent readings...

Winterwood - Patrick McCabe (not as good as I was hoping)
The Pilo Family Circus - Will Elliot (funny story about creepy clowns)
Kafka on the Shore - Haruki Murakami (made me think twice about whether I should drink Johnnie Walker)
Bad Faith - Carmen Calill (history of a French anti-semite and his drunken Tasmanian wife)

All fiction apart from the last one.

Subject	RE: [microsound] (ot) summer book reading list

Hi,

I read mostly non-fiction, and here are my summer suggestions:

Why is sex fun? : the evolution of human sexuality
by Jared Diamond

Blink
by Malcolm Gladwell

Getting to Yes
By Roger Fisher and William Ury

Freakonomics
by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner

Spaces Speak, Are You Listening?
by Barry Blesser and Linda Salter
(I do not feel too guilty about adding my own book because
it has generated a lot of positive buzz amoung those with
an interest in audio, music, acoustics, and architecture?
See www.SpacesSpeak.com for a preview)

Not only are all five books fun, but you will learn something too,
Barry

hello,

i am wondering if everyone would like to share their summer book
reading lists if possible, or even books you have previously read
that you think will be enjoyable for others to read. i included (ot)
in the subject header because i personally do not have any preference
whether the books are microsound related or not. i am more interested
in simply wonderful reading material. thanks in advance, and my list
of 5 are as follows in no particular order:

• world changing - a user's guide for the 21st century by alex steffen

• communication is culture - james carey

• animal liberation - peter singer

• culture jam - kalle lasn

• europe and the people without history - eric wolf

i am excited to see what others are/have reading/read!

dominic
