A few books I'm reading now:
-
Practical Django Projects (Pratical Projects)
-
Bargaining for Advantage: Negotiation Strategies for Reasonable People 2nd Edition
-
The Sustainable Vegetable Garden: A Backyard Guide to Healthy Soil and Higher Yields
-- Sort of a cliff-notes version of "How to Grow More Vegetables and Fruits", but I thought I'd buy them both.
-
How to Grow More Vegetables and Fruits: (And Fruits, Nuts, Berries, Grains, and Other Crops)
A few books I'd recommend:
-
Naked Economics: Undressing the Dismal Science
by Charles Wheelan -- A fantastic overview of the field of Economics. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book.
-
A Short History of Nearly Everything
by Bill Bryson -- a true tale of scientific thinking throughout history. You'll be amazed by how much we still don't know.
-
Freakonomics [Revised and Expanded]: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
by Steven D. Levitt, Stephen J. Dubner -- a fun read offering a somewhat different way of looking at society. Answers questions like "Why do drug dealers still live with their moms?", and what qualities in a parent matter for the success of a child later in life?

Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity
by David Allen. I'm a bit of a GTD freak since reading this, but productivity == $$ (whether you can simply get more work done in a given time, or work less by focusing on the right tasks.)
