More Sex Is Safer Sex: Steven E. Landsburg
You know how economics is nothing but making ridiculous statements that can't be proven wrong and playing them off as a serious possibility. No shocker here, that's what this book does. But really, it's an economic theory book that revolves around the notion that the more people that have sex, the safer sex will be.

One of the few scriptures studied by students of all sects of Buddhism, the Dhammapada is treasured as a universally accessible summary of the teachings of the Buddha. It presents the Buddhist path of liberation and the lyricism of the Buddha's teachings in an unabridged, miniature edition. Two-color interior. This is the version of the Dhammapada that I read and own, it is small enough to slip into your pocket of purse! One of the most natural ways to make yourself more beautiful is to perfect your mind, this book is short and quite cheap and is full of ancient wisdom for your healthy soul.

It starts off assuming you know nothing. It then proceeds to explain what the heart is, how it works, what an EKG is, how to read EKG's and what they mean. Simple yet well balanced graphics inform with ease. There are also many real world EKG's displayed, from normal hearts to abnormal conditions. You do not need any previous science education to understand this book, yet it's so helpful it's used by medical students and residents. Check a look at the sample page picture here to see how simple it is. Obviously this is a kind of narrow subject but I (not a doctor) found it very interesting. Anyone in the health sciences or just curious about EKG's and the heart will learn a lot from this enjoyable book. Read your own stress test! (Actually, leave it to the professionals, but you could with this book). Mad Biologist use: You'll find this skill necessary when animating your Frankensteins.

The back cover reads: "Nearer and nearer to the bed the intruder sole...a finger and thumb ready to pick up a fold of skin, in the other hand a hypodermic was ready. But suddenly, from the shadows, an iron grasp seized the hand that held the needle. An unemotional voice, the voice of the law, said: "No you don't. I want that needle!" The light switched on and from his pillows Conway Jefferson looked grimly at the murderer of Ruby Keene."

Artistic genius, political activist, painter and decorator, mythic legend or notorious graffiti artist? The work of Banksy is unmistakable, except maybe when it’s squatting in the Tate or New York’s Metropolitan Museum. Banksy is responsible for decorating the streets, walls, bridges and zoos of towns and cites throughout the world. Witty and subversive, his stencils show monkeys with weapons of mass destruction, policeman with smiley faces, rats with drills and umbrellas. His statements, incitements, ironies and epigrams are by turns intelligent and cheeky comments on everything from the monarchy and capitalism to the war in Iraq and farm animals. His identity remains unknown, but his work is prolific. And now for the first time, he’s putting together the best of his work – old and new in a fully illustrated color volume. Paperback.
