Week of the 1st:
Applied Economics, Sowell
Law 101, Feinman
The Game, Strauss
Week of the 8th:
Purple Cow, Godin
Generation X, Coupland
The Red Queen, Ridley
Everything Bad Is Good For You, Johnson
EDIT: Alex claims that Johnson is a hack and needs better research. Since it was a light week, he suggested beefing up to my usual intake of about 1050p/w with Blink by Gladwell. Since that was in the back of my mind for the following week, the advice is soundly accepted. That'll give me time to research Johnson on my own and I'll still be able to submit my requests to the library in time. Spiffy.
EDIT TO THE EDIT:
Week of the 15th:
Knowledge and Decisions, Sowell
Real Money, Cramer
Post Office, Bukowski
Propaganda and the Public Mind, Chomsky
Week of the 22nd:
The World is Flat, Friedman
Better Than Sex, Thompson
The Gang That Couldn't Write Straight, Weingarten
Everything Bad Is Good For You, Johnson?
Week of the 29th:
Why We Get Sick, Nesse
Choice and Consequence, Schelling
Tipping Point, Gladwell
Me Talk Pretty One Day, Sedaris
I really don't want to read Friedman's book. In fact, I may even buy it if I force myself to read it because I can predict urges to rip apart the library's copy. He's a douchebag. I don't like his opinions. For all I care, his asshole can start eating the rest of his body. However, it's still a popular view and I need to be educated on it thusly.
I'm hard pressed to find a good tome to sum up Chomsky for me, so I just picked the one I figured I'd enjoy most and there it is. Alex recommended "the movie" to me, but that'll have to wait until I feel like watching my view screen again. I fear that reading about his political views will kill all respect I have for the man's linguistics work. With all of the retarded liberal fuckos I come across touting his speeches, my fears may not be without merit.
The book I look forward to the most? Cramer. I don't give a shit if his book is nothing but lies; that man knows how to entertain.
