One of my favorite activities is reading. While there are extraordinary works of fiction out there that can inspire and enrich, for me it has always been about non-fiction. I am obsessed with an intense desire to understand the world, educate myself and be an intelligent human being who can appreciate complexity and nuance and live with uncertainty. My most prized possessions are my books which have helped shape who I am. They continue to challenge me in profound ways, while reminding me of how much I have yet to learn. I share these titles in the hope that you will find something that fascinates you. They have brought me countless hours of satisfaction.
