I have to weigh in my support for the “Godel, Escher, Bach” book. For me, this is a book that I pick up from time to time, randomly turn to a page, and find immense food for thought that often finds its way into a project I’m working on for a Client or into a painting. ‘Immensely good stuff.

I’d like to comment also about the “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance” book. This one is odd for me. On one hand, I found the book to be trite; “ok, I get the point about Quality already.” On the other hand, I find myself thinking about it quite often even though it’s been over a decade since I’ve read it.

Another one to add:

“Cybernetics: or Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine” by Norbert Wiener.

And one for you in particular, Vaughan:

“The Mystery of 2012: Predictions, Prophecies & Possibilities”– Read it and you might think you have to work faster to effect all the changes you’d planned for 2017!
