I just started Neuromancer by William Gibson.
Beautiful and Abundant: Building the World We Want by Bryan Welch. He is a Mother Earth News editor laying out ideas for how we as individuals can improve the way our world operates without getting caught up in ideas that are not self-sustaining. He is interesting because his magazine manages to occupy a market space which includes dirty hippies, survivalists, small farmers, and backyard and urban gardeners.
I'm continuing to read The Power of Now by Eckart Tolle. So far, most of it is adopted wholesale from Buddhist thought but I'm enjoying the way he relates and defends the idea of being present.
