I'm currently reading a book called Quirkology by Richard Wiseman (his blog and twitter, a psychologist from the UK. It's about the odder side of human behavior, and I recommend it.
I think he might be one of those authors where, once I read the first book, I have to read every other. Doesn't happen all that frequently with writers (the last was a novelist named Jonathan Tropper)... usually more so with bands and musicians (The Cure, 10,000 Maniacs, Ben Folds. I hear one thing I like and then I grab everything I can as soon as possible.
Anyway, Wiseman has a great style, and it's nice to know I'm learning something while I'm being entertained.
