The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook
4 people recommended this item
Description
From the website: "This handy and informative how-to is based on consultations with experts in a variety of fields such as stunt-car driving, alligator wrestling, and medicine. It tells you how to survive, escape from, or otherwise deal with extreme, unforeseen situations that are often life-threatening--such as how to fend off a shark attack or what to do when your parachute fails to open. Some are more likely to occur, such as how to deal with a downed power line or how to deliver a baby in a taxicab. Highly entertaining and practical."

The Creative Habit: Learn It and Use It for Life
First to recommend
Description
A while back, I read The Creative Habit by Twyla Tharp. At first, I wondered what it had to do with me since she is one the leading choreographers of our time and I am about as far away from a dancer as I can be. But the book, as it turns out, is more about tapping into your creativity than it is about dancing. It doesn't matter if you are a painter, musician, businessperson, or simply a someone who wants to put their creativity to use, The Creative Habit offers 32 practical exercises, along with Twyla's insightful wisdom, to get the creative juices flowing!

A closeup look at some of the world's most famous artists from Claude Monet to Giorgio de Chirico. It's very interesting to see where and how they lived. I am amazed that most of the houses look like mansions. The photography is beautiful.
