Books on my desk

I have two desks in my room set up in a 90° angle to each other. On one I do my actual work and the other more and more became some sort of extra wide storage room. On it I also keep books about topics I'd like to get deeper into in the future. Or at least some of them. And I think this blog can help me getting started. I'll write here about my progress in reading those books.

And here they are:
- Effective Leadership in Adventure Programming by Simon Priest (Sometime in the future I really want to do the NOLS Outdoor Educator program)
- Lifespan Development by Denise Boyd and Helen Bee (Bought that for one of my classes. Would like to really work it through sometime.)
- The Journey of Adulthood by Barbara R. Bjorklund and Helen Bee (Same as with Lifespan Development)
- Radical Simplicity by Dan Price (The idea of making life more simple seems very appealing.)
- How to make a journal of your life by Dan Price (Ok, I love how Dan Price's books look. And I'd like to make a journal of my life.)
- Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things by by William McDonough and Michael Braungart (I would like to see this idea spreading. Reminds me of this fantastic website: http://www.storyofstuff.com)
- Wreck this Journal and How to be an explorer of the world by Keri Smith (I just love such unusual creative books.)
- The design of everyday things by Donald Norman (Wonderful book on usability.)
- Critical Thining by Richard W. Paul and Linda Elder (I think I could benefit from working through this book.)
- Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century by Alex Steffen (I want to make this world a little better..)
- 20 something manifesto by Christine Hassler (About the 'rough waters of twentysomething years' yeah. I'm still swimming.)
- Change your Luck by Richard Wiseman (Yep, want to change my luck.)
- Your brain: The missing manual by Matthew MacDonald (Very helpful.)
- Various books by Barbara Sher (guaranteed to inspire me and make me feel better)
- Schulfach Glück by Ernst Fritz-Schubert (A book about teaching "Happiness" as a subject in school. I'm very interested in how we could change the school system for the better.)
- Presentation Zen by Garr Reynolds (One day I want to be able to make killer presentations like that.)
- Gelassen und sicher im Stress by Gert Kaluza (A book about stress and how to handle it.)
- Ten Steps to Complex Learning by Jeroen J.G. van Merrienboer and Paul A. Kirschner (Need to write a paper using that method this semester.)
- Mini Max Interventionen by Manfred Prior and Dieter Tangen (I'm quite interested in Coaching and the techniques in here could probably help in all kinds of interactions with people.)
- Getting Things Done by David Allen (Already use part of the system. Want to get better though.)
- A book on Yoga (I love Yoga. Want to start doing it regularly at home.)

Plus, another thing that's on my plate for the next months is the script for my statistics class. Yey!
