1.The Omnivore s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four MealsThe Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals
from Penguin
Price: $9.60

Customer Review:
This book was very well written. Before starting, I was worried that it would be a rather dry read (after all, how much can you say about food?). Well, apparently there is an awful lot to say about food, and Pollan does a great job at making it interesting. He brings to light some of the problems... more info

4.The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big DifferenceThe Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference
from Back Bay Books
Price: $10.19

Customer Review:
The Tipping Point offers an intriguing perspective on how buying trends, social trends, and other patterns of behavior occur as a result of a few people: connectors, mavens, and salesmen. I think the author supports his claim really well with the data he draws on. I found the book intriguing because... more info

5.Freakonomics [Revised and Expanded]: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of EverythingFreakonomics [Revised and Expanded]: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
from William Morrow
Price: $18.45

Customer Review:
While I wouldn't go so far as to relegate the book to one-star status, I completely agree some of the objections on here. I'm halfway through the book right now, and I've been repeatedly troubled with the authors' tendency to reach qualitative conclusions that go beyond their data.
That said,... more info

7.Stuff White People Like: A Definitive Guide to the Unique Taste of MillionsStuff White People Like: A Definitive Guide to the Unique Taste of Millions
from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
Let me say up front that I enjoyed the book. I thought it was funny, and I snickered throughout the entire book. But, white people??? I would say it is more like liberal people. I don't think this is about ethnicity, or that it is generational - it just seemed more political than anything else.

Although I enjoyed the Stlyleife Diaries, what was truly worth the money was the Stylelife challenge.

Not to be redundant with all the other positive reviews, but simply put, this was a beautiful story of two women -- raised together as "same sisters" and the tale of their trials, tribulations, joy and happy moments as they go through life in mid 1800s China. The historical information about the... more info

10.The Dark Knight: Featuring Production Art and Full Shooting ScriptThe Dark Knight: Featuring Production Art and Full Shooting Script
from Universe
Price: $23.60

Customer Review:
The script accounts for 3/4s of this book. The 1/4 of the book that's left has barely passable production art photos and interviews. In other words this is mainly a script book which skimps out considerably on the "featured production art" it proudly advertises on the front cover. This is a big... more info
