What books can do for you!!

I've been reading books since a very young age. I always looked at books as a form of entertainment, fantasy and imagination. But one day I read a book called "The Tao of Physics", it changed the way I looked at books. The only thing close to this was going through the National Geographic magazine and (later) the TV channel.

I found out that books connect you to almost any kind of person. Scientist, Writers, Musicians, Doctors all can connect to the reader with their books. This book started the journey of non-fiction for me. I could enjoy the company of people who are at the forefront of any stream of action/thought.

I've read and picked up some valuable thoughts from :
Yoga (Iyengar),
Alternative Medicine (Dr. Dhiren Gala),
Cricket(Dennis Lillee,Frank Tyson),
Guitar(Ralph Denyer),
Acupressure(Park Jae Woo),
Body-Building (Arnold Schwarzenegger)
InterPersonal skills (Dale Carnegie)
Philosophy (Swami Vivekanada)
Psychology (Carl Gustav Jung, Maria Montessori)
Problem Solving (George Polya)
