Books

Anyone who know me realizes I am a voracious reader (as is Andrea, pictured above). I regularly have at least three books I am working on, and sometimes as many as six. Friends and students often ask what I am reading and/or what I recommend. In an effort to make this easier for all parties involved, I have assembled a list of some of my favorite authors and books. My tastes are rather eclectic, so the list is in no particular order. Whereever possible, I will give a link to Amazon.com's description of the book so as to give those interested more info. Also, I have provided links where possible to information on the author on Wikipedia. I will add and update the list periodically, so drop by from time to time. Warning: This list is for, to quote Scott Adams in God's Debris, "people who enjoy having their brains spun inside their skulls." If you have any recommendations I am always looking for new material. Feel free to email me at TubaMan246@aol.com. Hope you enjoy!
