Currently, I am reading my textbooks. That's all the reading I have time for. LOL Actually, my literature book is pretty cool as it is full of short stories (it's an anthology). I love my anthropology book as well.
Before starting classes I read an interesting book - "The Elementary Forms of Religious Life." It was a tough read as it is a translation from French but really good. Pud's you may enjoy it as it has to do with the aboriginals in Australia and how they formed religious life. Emile Durkheim was a French sociologist that studied the aboriginals and wrote the book.
Recently, a friend of mine gave me a copy of "The Scalpel and the Soul" which was written by a neurosurgeon who is now disabled. She said he talks about patients and experiences from the physician's side as well as many other things. Hopefully I will be able to read it soon.
