Brand-new non-fiction I'd read...if I had the time:
Snoop: What Your Stuff Says About You by Sam Gosling.
How we use our personal, home and work spaces to project, or protect, our identities through "psychological footprints" and "behavioral residue" found in our cars, our tattoos, our living rooms, our MP3 playlists, our blogs (!) and even in the books we read! Your possessions and their ambiance say a lot about you...find out what!
The Unthinkable: Who Survives When Disaster Strikes---and Why by Amanda Ripley.
Examines how humans function under duress and identifies common traits among survivors of shipwrecks, fires, tsunamis and other natural disasters. Your "stage of emotional response"---denial, delay, risk, fear, panic, paralysis, or heroism---denotes how you'll fare. The author also gives several tips on how to boost your own odds. Be ready!
