这都是我过去几年的想法，要把书柜放上自己的部落格，好让以后自己也可以欣赏下自己的藏书。当时，书少的可怜，所以怕引人笑柄，就没放了。现在，存够了，也觉得是时候放放分享了，哈，以下都不包括字典，词典，和中学读物。
可惜，那个书柜开始负荷不了那些书的重量了，而且空间狭小。所以打算在ikea买个舒服的书柜，让我的爱书们躺躺咯。哈哈哈
以上是我从这次2009年的书展买回来的，总共7本。看了两本。但愿这几天假期有时间，也得看看。
我一直引以为荣的乱石堆。我觉得把远处的石头搬回家里，有一种莫名的爽感，很满足占有欲的。里面有，海岛的珊瑚，火山石，神山花岗岩，等等的乱石。（我也有内疚的时候，因为这样是有违环保的概念，可是就是阻止不了自己那么热烈的渴望要把石子给搬家的行为，我也觉得羞耻的，唉）
另一隅的书。看到二月河的《雍正王朝》吗？我的至爱啊！可惜不是我的，是时候还给黄小姐了。
对自己的书柜，总有一个梦想，因为我很羡慕别人有一个很大的书橱，然后又看不完的好书，那种是一种很神圣的感觉，很学者。但愿我有一天也有这样的机会啦！
谢谢，那些曾经陪我买书，送书，介绍书给小弟的人，书，真的不能嫌多。知识无边啊....
以下就是本人的中英藏书分类与感言，如果可以您也可以与我分享你的爱书经验的，

| 5 | May 13: Declassification Documents on the Malaysian Riots of 1969 | Kua Kia Soong | SUARAM | As my reference of m degree dissertation. The book incline on the royal de-tate of TAR, but it is controversial on its own self. |

| 7 | Islam, Knowledge and Others Affairs | Mahathir | MPH | This is his thoughts way back to 2007 current issues. An understanding to a genius mind. |
| 8 | The Fines Hour: The Malaysian MCP Peach Accord in Perspective | Collin Abraham | SIRD | Just couldn't get my hand off it when I was reading it. It is in-depth understanding on pre-independence day of Malaya. A very good one yet reader friendly. |
| 9 | Singapore and The Many-Headed Monster | Joe Conceicao | Orizon Books | Reference for my degree dissertation. Very Singaporean oriented, but very useful as a mirror to reflect Malaysian race-based politics or criticism on it. |
| 10 | In Good Faith | Zaid Ibrahim | ZI Publication | Reference for my degree dissertation. A very brilliant Malaysian that dare to criticise Malaysia cronyism and its executive branch dominated legislative system. Very good for reading one even all articles are his speech. |

| 12 | A Failure of Capitalism | Richard Posner | Harvard University Press | A very very detailed explanation of how financial crisis in US grows into depression. And he criticise the current system of capitalism but suggest no replacement of it since no other better system could work than this. But he also shows his worry towards Capitalism be replaced by conservatism which will hurt the world economy. |
| 13 | The Age of Turbulence | Alan Greenspan | Penguin | An understanding to a genius (or creator of crisis?). He wrote about his life and his thoughts of republican-liberal economics. Laisseze-faire hardcore supporters, I can conclude. |
| 14 | The Return of Depression Economics and the Crisis of 2008 | Paul Krugman | Norton | He tries to sum up all financial crisis as a base of understanding the current crisis. He accrued to reason to mismanagement of economics by particular leaders. |

| 15 | The Undercover Economist | Tim Harford | Abacus | Very reader friendly and cover most parts of current economic issues. It is so enjoy to read this kind of book, it just require little economic knowledge, then our writer will lead us into the real application of boring econ theory. |
| 16 | The Logic of Life | Tim Harford | Abacus | Very reader friendly again. A sequence to first book, but this time cover more sensitive issues like race, segregation and population. It is pleasant to read it for stress release time by its humour sense of writing. |
| 17 | The Economic Naturalist | Robert Frank | Basic Book | Very basic of economic. Very real life, but could not impress me much since it does not cover in-depth enough for economic. |
| 18 | Predictably Irrational: The hidden forces that shape our decision | Dan Ariely | Harper Collins | In strict sense, he is not economics, but the coverage is just like behavioural economics. Economics may be too 'hard' in a sense that it is dry and boring to study since it is so rational and give no room to human behaviour. But by taking account of human behaviour, some econ theory doesn't hold it ground. It makes me recall back my Uni 3rd year of risk mgt study! |
| 19 | Creating a world without poverty | Muhammad Yunus | BBS Public Affairs | It is a very easy understanding of a successful story of how a banker with a vision to help poors, end up opening a charity-like bank which based on trust rather than conventional collateral based lending style. This earn him a Nobel prize. But easily get bored for this book when certain chapter cover too shallow part of operation side of banks. |
| 20 | Singapore Perspective 2004 | Arun Mahizahnan | IPS | My very first book of my Uni life in completing my project for Southeast Asia study in first year. |
| 21 | The Making of Economics | E.Ray Canterbery | World Scientific | Looks like the evolution history of economics. But not really have time to read through it. It is my very very first econ book in my life. |
| 22 | Economics of Islam | Sheikh Mahmud Ahmad | Adam publisher | Don’t really Read through it. Buy it for the sake of trends. :P |
| 23 | Globalization and its Discontents | Joseph Stigliz | Norton | IMF hatred writer. In a very criticized way for the case of 1998 Asia financial crisis of which the way how IMF come out with solution which don’t fit in to the local context. |
| 24 | Globalization and its Counter-forces in Southeast Asia | Terence Chong | ISEAS | Many journals about Southeast Asia in the context of globalization. |

| 27 | Six Sigma Management | Harry and Schroeder | Currency | Management skills that designed by engineer which is mainly based on scientific management theory. It is very dry indeed. Buy it for the sake of interview. :P |

| 41 | 美国的故事 | 房龙 | 牧村 | 可能翻译，最难翻译的就是西方幽默写在华语里。所以，他的层次是很混乱的。 |
| 42 | 人性的污点 | 菲利普。罗斯 | 木马 | 还未看完。觉得故事进展很缓慢。 |
| 43 | 追风筝的孩子 | 卡勒特。胡赛尼 | 木马 | 很可怜，但可以去了解阿富汗的小说。 |

| 46 | 奥德塞 | 荷马 | 光明日报中国出版社 | 希腊经典故事。可惜翻译未能尽述其味。 |
| 47 | 十日谈 | 卜伽丘 | 中国致公出版社 | 原来，文艺复兴时的经典是相当开放，也相当色情的。哈哈哈 |
| 48 | 苏菲的世界 | 乔斯坦。贾德 | 作家出版社 | 用一名女孩，和一名老人，串联了数千年的哲学思想，蜻蜓点水的带过每个主要的哲学思维，但不深入，而且结局太出乎意料了。 |
| 49 | 哲学的历史 | 马丁。奥利弗 | 究竟出版社 | 以哲学人物为章节。也是蜻蜓点水，入门时，可以看看。 |

| 50 | 1776：美国的诞生 | 大卫。麦卡勒 | 时报 | 非常仔细的描述华盛顿在领导美国独立前期所打的几场关键战争。遗憾的是，书本并没有叙述至华盛顿完全隔离英国为止，只是非常的注重在1776年而已。 |
| 51 | 汉书 | 李孔怀撰 | 中华书局 | 里面都是以人物为传记的历史记录。古典文学还蛮难消化的。 |
| 52 | 余秋雨：山居笔记 | 余秋雨 | 文汇 | 让我不禁赞叹书写历史的同时，还可以一并抒情。很赞，但历史底子要好，不然真的不知所云了。 |
| 53 | 品三国 | 柏杨 | 远流 | 柏杨是在品其中的人物，细节。看得不是很过瘾。 |
| 54 | 改变历史的书 | 唐斯博士 | 联经 | 16本作者认为改变世界历史的书。个人觉得本本都是经典，可以借此以书来了解一个时代的动荡和发展。不错看。 |
| 55 | 胡姓 | 黄启昌 | 东方 | 觉得编辑的很乱，而且参杂着古文与白话，所以很难看得懂。 |
| 56 | 前朝梦忆： 张岱的浮华与苍凉 | 史景迁 | 时报 | 以明末的一个富家子弟来描绘当时的富裕社会，也来映射清初时期中国知识分子的心理转变。 |
| 57 | 天安门 | 史景迁 | 时报 | 一个清末到民国到1989的编年文学家传记历史。在文学，知识分子来看中国的命运转变，如何从启蒙，动荡，整肃，文化革命，来到处一一知识分子在中国命运的坎坷。64运动为章末的重点，写的劲道有力，非常的赞！让我爱上史景迁的书！ |
| 58 | 寻找现代中国史-从共产主义到市场经济 | 史景迁 | 时报 | 二战后的中国，如何在万难的历史中崛起，如何实施改革，之后失败，文化改革，之后失败，再一一步入现代化，和参与国际经济。也是很赞的书。 |
| 59 | 王丹访谈-与知识分子的对话 | 王丹 | 立绪 | 以访谈来说明他的思想与活动。64事件的学生领袖。 |
| 60 | 百年家族-胡适 | 沈卫威 | 立绪 | 说明胡适如何启蒙五四运动，白话古文崛起，如何是倾西方的人物，最后与国民党逃到台湾，一个人历史，反映整个时代的发展。不错看。 |
| 61 | 成吉思汗 | 杰克。魏泽福 | 时报 | 编撰成吉思汗的一生。详细记载他是如何入侵西方，争霸中原。如何把文化传播到中亚各地的历史。不错看，虽然写的都是成吉思汗的建树。 |
| 62 | 蒋氏父子 | 陈冠任 | 东方 | 解释如何蒋介石如何得权，承继了孙中山的使命，再到整个国民党的贪污腐败，再到传位给孩子，蒋经国，如何治理台湾的一部父子历史。不错看。 |
| 63 | 诸葛亮 | 章映阁 | 知书房 | 再次以正史的角度来点评诸葛亮。但也有记载详细的历史。但其精彩度就当然缺乏经典小说三国演义的规范了。 |
