Malibou's question

Malibou asked, "What is the best non fiction book you've read?"

Gosh, I really don't know. I don't think you're after a religious answer so I won't write about the Book of Mormon. Hmm ... I don't have a top favourite but here are some that I've enjoyed:

Current non-fiction books are gardening books including Grow Your Own Veg and The Gardening Book.

Understanding Exposure is a fantastic guide which started me out on photography - I'd recommend it to anyone starting out with a new camera.

When I was in business I found The E Myth Revisited really helpful and inspiring.

The Natural Way to Beat Depression literally changed my life.

When the boys were babies I found as Why They Cry really helpful.

When they were toddlers I was encouraged by Toddler Taming.

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus (or as Grant calls it, Men are from Mars, Women are Insane) is a great classic with fabulous insight.

The Five Love Languages of Children has some great insight too, although it can be a bit black-and-white.

The Complete Tightwad Gazette is interesting, easy to read and very inspiring.

Gee, I've surprised myself by coming up with way more books than I'd anticipated, once I'd started thinking about it! I'm a very "must-understand-it" kind of person so I'll often turn to books for insight. I hope some of these help you.
