New Books in HOMER July 3, 2007

Hi folks:

Finally, here are the new list of books bought in May and available in HOMER right now. The categories I am using are very loose since some titles kind of cross one or two categories, but for the sake of putting some order into chaos bear with my simple categories for now. Some of these books are on display in the New Books Shelves at the Library on the Plaza Level, so feel free to stop by and check them out. If you have problem finding any book, please let me know. Also, feel free to post your suggestions for other similar or better books. Thanks, Marisol
