When Strangers Meet argues for the pleasures and transformative possibility of talking to people you don't know. Our lives are increasingly insular. We are in a hurry; our heads are down, minds elsewhere; we hear only the voices we already recognize and rarely take the effort to experience something or someone new. Talking to a stranger pulls you into a shared humanity. It's a source of creative energy. It opens your world, and it cements your relationship to the places you live and work and play.

Man’s Search for Meaning is the chilling yet inspirational story of Viktor Frankl’s struggle to hold on to hope during the unspeakable horrors of his years as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps. Between 1942 and 1945 Frankl labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the experiences of those he treated in his practice, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering, but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose.

As humbling as it is illuminating
Revisado: 11-07-17
As he mentions early on, this is by no means a full documentation of the holocaust or the authors full experiences of surviving the camps, but rather he uses examples carefully to illustrate human nature. This book is aptly named and is an illuminating exploration of man's search for meaning, even in the darkest circumstances

Revealing the Wonders of the Forest
Revisado: 10-03-16
A beautiful account of the authors observations and findings on the very social lives of trees. The findings are intuitive and make sense when you step into a forest. You can feel the truth of it in how comforting a healthy, undisturbed forest feels to be in. Yet it is fascinating to learn the intricacies and details of how trees live, love, and learn together. The forest certainly is more than the sum of its parts. Beautifully and fittingly narrated as well I might add.

From the fitness-tracking Nike Fuelband to the head-mounted computer Google Glass, wearable technology is turning our bodies into the new frontier of computing. In Computerised You, Shane Richmond considers how wearable technology could help us to lead healthier lives and make us more efficient, examines the threat to our privacy and the danger of addiction, and looks to a future of computer-augmented clothing and brain implants that challenge our notions of what it means to be human.
