Nice background music. She has a very recognizable voice. That makes it a bit predictable. Her newest CD is better. Author: Tracy Chapman |

The Stargate Conspiracy | |
|
Interesting conspiracy book. It claims that there is a secret conspiracy going in contacting beings on other worlds. It has relations with Egypt, the pyramid, CIA sponsored research, channeling, the Nine, etc. The books tries to connect various things, which makes it interesting. I like grander theories.

Seven Experiments | |
|
This book describes seven subjects in science, which need more attention by scientists. He describes the current way of doing science and the many drawbacks it has. Subjects are taboo and the scientific method selects disregards results that do not fit. An interesting book. Especially the discussion on science itself. Author: Rupert Sheldrake |

Dark Star Safari | |
|
A very good book. In this book Paul Theroux describes his trip from Cairo to Cape Town. He takes an easterly route through Ethiopia and Sudan, Kenya and Malawi. Amazing how he travels by public transporation and meets all kind of people along the way. The book saddened me a bit if you see what shape Africa is in. Many years of help does not seem to have helped and clearly other methods of helping must be found. Author: Paul Theroux tags: travel |

Just Six Numbers | |
|
This book describes six numbers in physics and cosmology. These numbers determine the makeup of our universe. The interesting thing is that these numbers must have a pretty exact value, otherwise mankind would not exist. The interesting question is why have this numbers these values? An very interesting read. The book is not too difficult. Author: Martin Rees |

I just finished reading this book by Howard Rheingold. It is a very good book, which gives a good overview of various group phenomena, like SMS, Mobile Networks, Peer-peer, WiFi, Blogs. All these new technologies give more power to the end-user. The book discusses the possible relevant sociological theories which might explain what is happening. In this respect the book stries to bridge the gap between theory and practice. It certainly does describe a new phenomenon, for which the outcome is still uncertain. Author: Howard Rheingold |

Snapshots from Hell | |
|
I bought this book by accident. I thought I bought a police thriller by Peter Robsinson, but that turend out to be someone else. I however read this book and it was very pleasurably reading, especially for someone who rejected the commercial world as well. Peter Robinson is a former script writer of Ronald Reagan. At the end of Reagan's reign he decides to get a MBA from Stanford. He has however a literary background (a poet), which makes his life very difficult at Stanford. He accountes how he fights through this. And he observes his fellow students and their ambitions. Great reading. However do not expect a thorough analysis of a MBA study. Author: Peter Robinson |
