As many others have experienced before me, it is much less cumbersome to write about books and events on my blog...so effective pretty immediatly, all readings wille be commented in my blog section .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To keep track on my own experiences with fascinating books, I will post a list of books I have recently read and enjoyed. Books will be sorted by topic and described as soon as time allows. At the bottom of the page you will find a more extensive end-note compiled reference list of books I have read and liked (still building the list though).

Academic
An Unamerican Business, by Donald Kalff
One of quite few books arguing the present and future competitive advantages for European businesses compared to the US. It might of course be me not studying the book top a great enough extent, but I did not find much new insights here that is not allready obvious and presented in the world of academia and media.
The Design of Ordinary things
Originally titled "The Psychology of everyday things, this little book is a brilliant explanation of why functional design is so important.
Mass Hate, by Neil J Kresser
An intriguing book on why the brutality of humankind has erupted and flowed so expansively in the twentieth century, all from a psychologist point of view.
Non-Fiction
Trusted Mole, by Milos Stankovic
I had this book recommended by a friend who covered the entire Sarajevo Siege, living close to the front line in Sarajevo. Not only being a very interesting and accurate description of the Bosnian war, it is also a very intriguing story about a man who gave everything to his country, only to be innocently accused of being a spy by his government. Excerpt from the book description: This is the powerful, disturbing and highly acclaimed account of how a British officer in the Parachute Regiment, of part Yugosla origin, became painfully embroiled in the savage maelstrom of the Bosnian war.
