I don't really read non-fiction per se. The closest I tend to delve into into is a myriad of philosophy books. What kind of Non-Fiction do you other peoples enjoy? Any recomendations?

I try not to read it too. I get enough non-fiction in day to day life honestly.

The last thing I remember reading was William Shatner's biography... cause he's my hero and all. Sad but true.

Biographies. Anything from Peter the Great, to Nancy Reagan.

And generally weird stuff like "Great Mambo Chicken and the Transhuman Condition: Science Slightly over the Edge" which I got halfway through, before I realized it was NOT fiction, which was kinda scary, funny and weird.

i like non-fiction, but i don't get time to read a lot of it. when i do, i mostly read science, religion, philosophy, occult, history, art/architecture, or biography related books. i'm particularly interested in modern science and ancient cultures. i'm the posterchild for national geographic didn't you know ;).

a good science read is Dawkin's 'The Selfish Gene'. it goes into the evolution and genetics of the universe.

I mainly read biographies, occasionally a history book on a period that interests me. Anything written by William Manchester is worth the time.
