My parents are both buissness people so the only books they have are old college books and of course buissness books. Things that I'm not interested in at all. I think it was recommended that newbies PR books that interest them correct? I do however have tons of fiction books that I want to get through but thought it would be better if i started with non fiction so that I can get a good grasp of the system. I tryed going to the library but haven't been able to find a suitable one. What kinds of books are recommended for newbies? Youngprer what kinds of books do you PR?

Thanks

I dont know all non-fiction seems boring. Hopefully they will appeal more to me some day.

Aaron=newbie? no way...

What are you asking here? I recommend any book in Gutenburg. Old textbooks are AWESOME! they are clear and concise due to $$ restrictions and very well written. No distracting pictures or anything. Fiction is boring. Only time I read fiction is when I'm complete bored and nothing better to do, or I run out of textbooks.

IT WILL WORK ON ANYTHING!!!

Buisness=awesome. Better to talk to your parents once you know some stuff, earn a few $$$ or something.


YOU ARE NOT A NEWBIE. No such thing.

I actually read almost nothing but non-fiction. The reason that the things I read interest me is because all of it is usually very relevant to my life. Last few books I've read include:

In the Mind's Eye
The Gift of Dyslexia
Using Your Brain for a Change
The Power of Letting Go

I recommend:
Biochemistry by Garrett and Grisham (2nd ed)
Tom M. Aposotol's Calculus and Linear Algebra books
ALL of physics textbooks
Most of computer programming books.

take care!

I activate textbooks by chapters, so no, not an entire textbook. Heavens no.
