Experimenting in BOTANY

well, I purchased them yesterday (Sunday). 11 books for the price of 225 INRs (INdian Rupee). They are all second-hand books but in good condition especially when only one new book costs around 250 INRs :D . As usual, let me know about your views and advice if you have read some of them...

I don't think books change lives (except in some minor cases) and I do think that they change one's views and the way one thinks about some things like women, general life, job, governments, corporations, schooling etc. and while doing that they give you some skills too that you can expand on...

I just purchased them last month: Snow Crash -- Neal Stephenson The Triumph of Politics -- David A. Stockman Who Owns America -- Walter J. Hickel Death of Air India Flight 182 -- Salim Jiwa 1984...

This post came out of the questions running on my mind from a longer time. I read both Sci-Fi and Non-Fiction and I do that to learn some skills about understading how ecomic structures work on aglobal level and to analyse the way people live lives and auoritative decisions that lay out the...

I usually started from Sci-Fi books while watched lots of Hollywood all along from a much longer time. But these days I am much more inclined towards some different kind of Non-Fiction e.g. In the Hollywood movie Pearl Harbor , it is shown that President was very patriotic and was very sensitive...

TAKEDOWN by Tsutomu Shimomura and John Markoff. I will post a long review of this book when I will finish. I am reading, reviewing and extracting the authors mentality in every chapter on a piece of paper and I think I am getting an insight into their thinking and the reality that happened.

I think when we mention the book of the month, we must also mention that whther it is Fiction or Non-Fiction. Just a thought :)
