I'm spending much more time in malls and shops this month -- must be the season. One of my favourite places to spend time is a book shop. Any book shop. Something about them just make me happy.
This year, I spotted three books that I'm considering either giving or getting for myself, just 'cause they're so darn cool, for various reasons (Amazon affiliate links):
- How to Read a Photograph: Lessons from Master Photographers
- I find I'm learning to imagine what went into setting up these photos, what context influenced the creation of the image. Very neat!
- Trust Agents: Using the Web to Build Influence, Improve Reputation, and Earn Trust
- relates to work, and modern life. Building Social Capital in a connected world.
- It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Zombies
- pure Christmas fun.
So I'm curious, what books would you like to give (or get) this Christmas?
