i will add to it; this is for a social work class.
Social work fits my persona well.

i think i might just cut and paste bits and pieces from online book reviews; just to prove the premise of the book wrong.

Perhaps you should try The Fabric of the Universe...
Does he uses the Simpsons and other characters in his explanations? He does in this book. It is good but the switching from simple to complex makes it confusing at times without a good quantum mechanics background.

Sorry...no Simpons in The Elegant Universe //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

But yeah...The Fabric of the Universe is on my list of to-reads

The Things They Carried. By Tim O'Brian.I loved this book. I usually dont like to read that much, but I had to read this one for a class. Its a really good war sorry or rather stories told by tim about his days in nam. very good morals in the book and the storys are amazing.

I read that book, It gave the human insight of how a person can hold a high standard in War and still keep your sanity.

If you like that one, Try Stephen Hawkens Universe.

You may not see the whole picture when reading it, But it sure makes you ask questions on how it all works as a whole.

Math it could save your life:naughty:

if you like any sort of fantasy books, i suggest these.

The Runelords (series)

book1 - The Sum of All Men

book2 - Brotherhood of the Wolf

book3 - Wizardborn

book4 - The Lair of Bones

absolutly EXELENT books. if anyone read the lord of the rings or eragon, those books are way better.

and if anyone is into tom clancy and that kind of crap, give clive cussler a try. he wrote a whole series of books based on a modern "indiana jones" style action hero named dirk pitt.

valhalla rising was my favorite
