A Historical Memoir of Science, Faith, and Loveby Dava Sobel
"In Galileo's Daughter, Dava Sobel (author of the bestselling Longitude) tells the
story of the famous scientist and his illegitimate daughter, Sister Maria Celeste. Sobel
bases her book on 124 surviving letters to the scientist from the nun, whom Galileo
described as "a woman of exquisite mind, singular goodness, and tenderly attached to
me."
"Dava Sobel reveals a man who, at least in his own mind, was no scientific icon.
He was a man who loved both his science and his religion, and the uproar his book caused
both bewildered and greatly saddened him."

WHY IS EVERYONE SO CRANKY?
The Ten Trends That Are Making Us Angry and How We Can Find Peace of Mind Instead by C.
Leslie Charles
"this book from amazon.com accomplishes two great things. First, with all its
questions and quisize="3es, it helps you wake up and see exactly what is bugging you/making you
cranky. Second, and probably more important, it shows you how to create a life
prescription that not only takes care of a lot of the stressful stuff, but sets you on a
better path towards personal peace."
"For many people, a feeling of anger seems to lurk just below the surface of their
consciousness, awaiting ignition. The anger overflows when we experience events such as
canceled flights, poor customer service, and parking attendants who make us a half hour
late for a play. And, increasingly, the anger we experience is disproportionately intense.
Leslie Charles categorizes issues and events which help to fuel this rage; her categories
include compressed time, constant change, and communication overload."

"People have certain beliefs about things. For example you might have the belief
that you must be liked by everybody. Beliefs like this cause you to become very upset when
you realize that this belief is being broken and twisted by the world in which you are
living. To stop these "irrational beliefs" you have to put in place of them
"rational beliefs" such as "I want people to like but if they don't it's ok
and I should rather accept myself as I am." When you have rational beliefs than you
will not feel depressed at all. "

by Edward M. Hallowell, M.D."To create worry," Dr. Hallowell writes,
"humans elongate fear with anticipation and memory, expand it in imagination and fuel
it with emotion. The uniquely human mental process called worrying depends upon having a
brain that can reason, remember, reflect, feel, and imagine. Only humans have a brain big
enough to do this simultaneously and do it well." In this lucid, reassuring book, Dr.
Hallowell discusses all types of worry, explores their underlying causes, and considers
the best strategies for coping. Case histories and anecdotes illuminate such issues as
worry in relationships; the correlation between worry and conditions like , depression,
social phobia, generalized anxiety disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder; worry at
work; and the worried child.
