    I'm reading The Pursuit of Attention:power and Ego in Everyday Life by Charles Derber. It's basically about the routines Americans expolit in competing for attention.

    "The Blank Slate" by Steven Pinker. It's on society's modern denial of the existance of human nature. Quite a fascinating read.

    Thinner by Stephen King (published first under Richard Bachman). I'm having trouble finishing it, however, as I hate the main character.:confused:

    Im reading the Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx (of course)

    I tried to read it over the summer, but if you have read it you prolly know how it can be a bit confusing.

    I finished Whirlwind and feel very lost without anymore Clavell to read for the time being. ONly one more book in the Asian Saga left to read... Gaijin, which I believe is going to be a Christmas present, Woot!

    So, I'm currently reading 365 ways to change the world by Michael Norton
