The Genius of the Beast: A Radical Revision of Capitalism by Howard Bloom from the sleeve: “It offers unseen levels of understanding, understanding that can literally redefine what it means to be a human being.” Not only that but it’s fun to read after about the first five chapters.
Women Who Run With the Wolves – Clarissa Pinkola Estes – I’m on my second reading of this book which explains the meaning of archetypal fairy tales from all over the world in terms of the lessons they are meant to relay to women. Don’t have to read it all at once. Good for women who are feeling that they’ve compromised themselves – there are lessons to be learned.
Einstein’s Dreams – Alan Lightman – another favorite that I’ve re-read many times. About a fictional young Einstein – each chapter describes different possibilities of the concept of time. Very cool and again, one chapter at bedtime is all you need.
