Partial list:
I sometimes fail to write down their names
This category, "Books,"
is becoming less meaningful since I read/learn more and more via the Web
these days.
What's scary is the growing
stack of books I want to read in the future. I'm in the midst of reading
Michael Schrage's Serious Play. And Robert Horn's Visual Language. And
Tapscott's Digital Economy. And Davis/Meyers' Future Wealth. And The Psychology
of the Internet. And A Primer of Visual Literacy.
These tomes populate my "books to
read" shelves:
The Eternal e-Customer
How Brains Think
The Tipping Point
e-Learning (Rosenberg)
Net Worth
Human Natures
Innovation Explosion
Leading the Revolution
Competing for the Future
Be Cool (Elmore Leonard)
How People Learn
On-Demand Learning
The Evolution of Useful Things
The Grace of Great Things
The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight
And Our Faces, My Heart, Brief as Photographss
Seeds of Contemplation
Computers as Theater
The Way of Aikido
Reinventing Comics
N is for Noose (Sue Grafton)
Understanding USA
The Pattern on the Stone
The Atlas of Experience
The Disciplined Mind
The Mind's Past
The Hungry Spirit
Cities on a Hill
The Quark and the Jaguar
The Experience of Place
The Empty Raincoat
Practicing Feng Shui
Emergence
Paris to the Moon
And then there are stacks of periodicals.
And a couple more bookcases.
