 Bonk:
The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex by Mary Roach
The study of sexual physiology-what happens, and why, and
how to make it happen better-has been a paying career or a
diverting sideline for scientists as far-ranging as Leonardo
da Vinci and James Watson. The research has taken place behind
the closed doors of laboratories, brothels, MRI centers, pig
farms, sex-toy R&D labs, and Alfred Kinsey's attic.
Mary Roach, "the funniest science writer in the country"
(Burkhard Bilger of The New Yorker), devoted the past two
years to stepping behind those doors. Can a person think herself
to orgasm? Can a dead man get an erection? Is vaginal orgasm
a myth? Why doesn't Viagra help women-or, for that matter,
pandas? In Bonk, Roach shows us how and why sexual arousal
and orgasm, two of the most complex, delightful, and amazing
scientific phenomena on earth, can be so hard to achieve and
what science is doing to slowly make the bedroom a more satisfying
place. 16 illustrations.

 Cracking
the Code: The Art and Science of Political Persuasion
by Thom Hartmann
Millions of working Americans talk, act, and vote as if their
economic interests match those of the megawealthy, global
corporations, and the politicians who do their bidding. How
did this happen? According to Air America radio host Thom
Hartmann, the apologists of the Right have become masters
of the subtle and largely subconscious aspects of political
communication. It's not an escalation in Iraq, it's a surge;
it's not the inheritance tax, it's the death tax; it's not
drilling for oil, it's exploring for energy. Conservatives
didn't intuit the path to persuasive messaging; they learned
these techniques. There is no reason why progressives can't
learn them too. In Cracking the Code, Hartmann shows you how.
Drawing on his background as a psychotherapist and advertising
executive as well as a national radio host, he breaks down
the structure for effective communication, sharing exercises
and examples for practical application.

Revenge: The Evolution of the Forgiveness Instinct by
Michael E. McCullough
Why is revenge such a pervasive and destructive problem? How
can we create a future in which revenge is less common and
forgiveness is more common? Psychologist Michael McCullough
argues that the key to a more forgiving, less vengeful world
is to understand the evolutionary forces that gave rise to
these intimately human instincts and the social forces that
activate them in human minds today. Drawing on exciting breakthroughs
from the social and biological sciences, McCullough dispenses
surprising and practical advice for making the world a more
forgiving place.
Michael E. McCullough (Miami, Florida), an internationally
recognized expert on forgiveness and revenge, is a professor
of psychology at the University of Miami in Coral Gables,
Florida, where he directs the Laboratory for Social and Clinical
Psychology.
