Convergence Culture: Where Old and New Media Collide (Revised with a New Afterword)

Henry Jenkins

NYU Press, 2008

Focused on Media, Art, Culture, Less So on Social Networks
I come late to this book, published in 2006. I do not regret it. It is a bit too focused on media, art, and "culture" for me, but I cannot penalize the author for being a master of arcane tid-bits. This book is a collection of previously published articles reworked ...

When Worlds Collide (Bison Frontiers of Imagination)

Philip Wylie, Edwin Balmer

Bison Books, 1999

A do-over well worth doing again
This is one of a handful of books I've read twice. Wonderful for introducing a young person to science fiction. I've also read the sequel, which I delightfully discovered in a second-hand store. It is also quite good.

When Cultures Collide: Leading Across Cultures

Richard D. Lewis

Nicholas Brealey Publishing, 2005

Excellent

the book I wish I'd written

Bill Hybels

Zondervan, 2007

More good stuff from Hybels!
Hybels is one of my favorite writers/leaders and I am always inspired and challenged when I read his stuff. It's no different after reading "When Leadership and Discipleship Collide." Even though this book is quite short, it's packed with a very important message ...

The Sadhu Volume 1: When Realities Collide (v. 1)

This is cool
Forget flaws- what doesn't have them?! Overall this story is very engaging, and the concepts are authentic to yogic mythology. The art is top-notch, and I am excited to read the next installment. We shouldn't forget that it's a graphic novel- a comic, and we shouldn't ...

When Valentines Collide (Kimani Romance)

Adrianne Byrd

Kimani, 2007

Hearts Aflame
I thought this was one of Ms. Byrd's greatest books. "When Valentines Collide" is a "touching" love story. When I say touching, I not only mean in a moving, sensitive way, but also in a physical "hitting" way. The Valentines were psychologists advising other people ...

Where Souls Collide (Contemporary Romance)

Stefanie Worth

Leisure Books, 2007

Some Soul to Keep
WHERE SOULS COLLIDE is a stunning debut and a magnificent read. Worth's writing, the story and the plot grabs on to the reader and doesn't let go. The world building is amazing and works on so many levels. But I can't say too much with out giving away spoilers. Let's ...
