Which book will you prefer for evening.

After work....If you suggest a book that may help us to forget all those work related stuffs.:) which one it would be... I was so taken by Orhan Pamuk's Snow ,which I am reading now. :)
I am suffering right now, I am waiting for a book on the Inquisition to come in the mail, and a book on heavy metal in the 90s ( via an Amazon order ), and I have nothing to read. When I don't read IT, I read books about music, books about brain science and psychology, or books about history. I just finished the book about how the Chinese discovered America, amongst other things, but turned their back on it. Fascinating stuff.

I do read IT..But most of the time when I casually read IT books ,I would be reaching some other world within less than 5 mins. And,I may be realising that after one hour..I don't know why? ..Is this a curable desease?:) But if a deadline is there,the same book could be completed within a matter of hours.

Yeah, I do read some IT books without having a specific task related to it, but I do like to broaden my horizons and learn about other things.

On boats. Big boats. Seriously, the Chinese sent out a huge fleet of ships and basically mapped the world. People like Columbus and James Cook sailed to the countries they 'discovered', using maps drawn by the Chinese.

WTF! Really, this isn't some goofy pseudo history tome? I'd be curious to hear more about this.

it's a heavily disputed claim.
-- If you view money as inherently evil, I view it as my duty to assist in making you more virtuous.
I'd google it but I assume most of what I'll get is along the same lines as looking for "Ancient Astronauts".

I haven't tried that, but there was a discussion about it a while ago on a different board I frequent. From what I recall it's about as well supported factually as the Norse claim was before ruins were found in Canada.
