Flatterland - Ian Stewart

"The Screwtape Letters" - C.S. Lewis

Its a pretty cool book dealing with religion, and christianity and devils. It has some humor, and alot of irony, but its a pretty good book just to read and make your own decision on. Check out your local library to find it.

"Mathpower 12" - Alberta Learning

oops...

The link is to Johnny Got His Gun, not the whole book, but enough to let anyone know if they would want to read the whole book.

Personally I think it should be required reading...

Michael Collins Piper's The Final Judgment would be my choice.

Interesting read: http://karws.gso.uri.edu/JFK/Critical_Summaries/Books/Piper_responds.html
