Just finished The Psychopath Test by Jon Ronson
Funny stuff,really thought provoking about psychiatry/scientology and just a generally fascinating read.

I'm reading Ransom X by I.B. Holder on the kindle at the moment. It is a great read for a free book. Real good pyscholical thriller.

Not long finished Dark Matter by Michelle Paver.
Enjoyed it, a proper old fashioned creepy Ghost story set in a 30's Artic research station

If you're studying for the R exams pass over that kind of stuff Sam, it's not worth the head space for a few marks. Concentrate on the straight forward stuff that'll get you your pass. Same goes if you're doing taking the J route. That method's seen me through the J's.

The thing is those calcs do come in useful for my job whereas they don't for yours I'm doing the Rs. 3 down, 3 to go.

Fair play, I would have hated the multiple choice route, prefer written exams myself.

Fuck me, I've understood precisely nothing in the last three posts!
However, I did just read One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, which is very short, but gives a good insight into life in Stalin's gulags.

Very interesting book that, Donkey. In a similar vein I would recommend If This Is A Man by Primo Levi, about the year he spent in Auschwitz.

Just some football books that I've particularly enjoyed and would recommend as (other than Keane's) they aren't particularly mainstream:
The Greatest Footballer You Never Saw - The Robin Friday Story Black & Blue - Paul Canoville (ex-Chelsea winger who suffered extreme racial abuse from his own fans) Back from the Brink - Paul McGrath Keane - Roy Keane From Right-Wing to B-Wing - Mark Ward (ex Everton winger sent down for 9 years for drugs offences) Full Time - Tony Cascarino Pointless - Jeff Connor (a season following East Stirling)
