What kind of books do you read ... do you read

Until this year I read mostly fiction, had phases where I was very into Russian authors, Beats (still my favorites), sci-fi, decadent literature, modern authors... I'm still reading a good amount of fiction trying to fill in the gaps, but my book piles are now much heavier with science, philosophy, psychology, history books than they used to be.

Right now I'm enjoying SYNERGETICS by ol Buck Fuller (highly recommended, it's odd) and another of Jung's volumes from the Bollingen collected works series

This year I've read 3 different Camus, a couple history books, and a half dozen architectural theory books. The best was Gropius' Total Scope of Architecture which is about the interrelationships between socialism, mechanization, working efficiency (work triangles, studies on body mechanics relative to basic assembly/construction), urban planning, architecture, and just the entire early modernist movement in general. He wrote it at his height, when he was the director at the Bauhaus before the rise of the Nazi party.

That sounds good, I added it to my Wishlist

I seriously recommend to you Synergetics (Amazon link), it's by R. Buckminster Fuller whom you may have heard of but if not he (partially) designed the geodesic dome among other architectural and transportational things.

I have been reading the russian lit greats as of late on my nook.

I also picked up The Will to Power a couple weeks ago.

I definitely love my philosophy books of any shape or form. Science books are great too, though I don't read nearly as many as I should.

Beyond that I just pick what interests me
