Monday Roundup


It is a week of celebrations in many respects. This month I've celebrated Diwali with colleagues for the first time, and I'm learning about rich traditions and India's cultural diversity. We also have festivals of Harvest, Halloween, Columbus Day and even United Nations Day. As I've learned about another culture this month, I've also learned more from my colleagues on environmentalism in India as well as a global outlook on the use of resources.

For our Monday Roundup, what is on your shelf? Do you have a review or recommendation you would like to share? We welcome your input, and look forward to a guest review this week. Please share your thoughts in our comments. Happy October!

I'm just starting Van Jones' Green Collar Economy. So far, so good.

I recently finished and reviewed Marion Nestle's "What to Eat." GREAT book explaining a lot of ins and out of the politics behind our food and how to make informed food choices.

I'm concurrently reading Big Green Purse and Crimes Against Nature (one on my night stand and one in my bag to read on the bus). I know, nothing new to share - I can't keep up with you ladies so I'm at least trying to read the books you've already suggested.
