Are We Having Fun Yet?

My tastes in reading material run a wide range. These days, I'm mostly delving into history, self-improvement, business management and, rarely, indulging myself in some pleasing fiction.

This week's load o' words included:

• finishing "59 Seconds: Think a Little, Change a Lot" (Robert Wiseman)
  
• "Solaris" (Stanislaw Lem)
  
• "How Did That Happen?" (Roger Connors, Tom Smith)
  
• "The Richest Woman in America" (Janet Wallach)
  
• "The Zig Zag Principle" (Rich Christiansen)
  
• "World War Z" (Max Brooks)

In the queue for next week, in no particular order:

• "Bigger Stronger Faster" (Greg Shepard)
  
• "Rome: An Empire's Story" (Greg Woolf)
  
• "The Magic of Thinking Big" (David Schwartz)
  
• "The Little Book of Talent" (Daniel Coyle)
  
• "A History of Mathematics" (Uta Merzbach, Carl Boyer)
