Are you reading a book now. Tell us about it. (41)
I read a little of everything. I just finished a facinating biography of Casanovas life. It was a very interesting glimpse into life in that time period

well,
I read a lot. whatever I can lay my hands on, I read it.
at this moment, I am reading a book from a Dutch writer.
it's a book about how to become a rat in the work arena.
the writer is a former manager and he describes how to make your way up in the company when you have to deal with people who behave as so called rats.
it's about the tricks people have in their sleeves, the games they play, how to gain power when you are just a worker under a boss who does not treat you right.
when I first started to read it, I couldn't believe my eyes.
in all the scenario's he described, I saw the movements of co-workers, bosses, and other people on the job.
he writes very vividly and leaves nothing to imagination.
a very good book, and I read a few papers every day in the hope it sinks in and gives me power to gain a better position at work.
(I am a woman in a man's world, single mum and work irregular hours, so I'll probably never promote if I don't use his techniques)

Who was the CEO who took only one dollar as payment for his salary when Chrysler was having a bad time. I was very impressed that he would do that. I see his face but can't remember his name.

I did read a really interesting book recently called "The aquatic ape" The author poses the theory that the missing link hasnt been found because early humans took to the water for several generations. Very compelling argument.

Some don't read fiction, some read only to educate themselves, others read those
I'm reading "MY FBI". It's the autobiography of Louis J. Freeh who was Director of the FBI from 1993 to 2001.
Before the FBI he was a Prosecutor for the Southern District of New York and a Federal Judge.
Freeh went up against Clinton, the Mafia, Robert Hanssen, Beltway bureaucrats and bin Laden. His Mafia experiences are most interesting.
FBI Directors aren't in office long but Freeh held the second longest tenure since J. Edgar Hoover.
Before September 11th happened, Freeh argued that al Qaeda were more than criminals and that they were an enemy force that had declared war on the United States.
So what are you reading....
