book(s)
Editor’s Note:
I created this page to really just cover some of the books I have been reading recently. I used to like having it on my sidebar, but having it on a page really helps to keep it as a record.
The book nearest the top of the page is the most recent one, it’s in reverse chronology very much like any blogs you see on the Internet.
I do hope you click the link (the link is the image itself, so click on the book cover!) and read the review I found for each book. And hopefully too, you’ll pick up a book and read up!
UPDATE: November 10, 2007. I’ve started to list several links for each book, on top of the book review. So, do look out for more than just the one review. I also will add any interesting additions and/or tidbits for a book that I find.
UPDATE: October 27, 2007. I’ve listed down the date when I inserted a new addition to the list.
Holla!

Just in case for the one (or seventy) of you who did stumble onto my book(s) page, first of all, a HUGE thanks!
And for the kind soul who emailed me without a proper email address vis-à-vis the book above, I discovered a Google Books article which has a limited preview of the book. It’s not as limited as you might think. It straddles some 196 pages — tens of pages I would rather you read off a hardcopy than depend on your web browser to read from.
But still, if, it helps, you should read the first few pages and then decide if it’s worth reading further.
Cheers.
