This is a list of books included in the wiki. Please add titles below by clicking the "Edit page" button above--the page editor works like a basic word processor. See the Wish List page for requests, and feel free to add your own items to it. Note that this list will include not only books participants like, but also books about which at least some wiki participants are less enthusiastic.
If the title of the book has a hyperlink, a page has already been created for the book. Click on the hyperlink to read reviews of the book or to add your own comments. If there's no hyperlink, feel free to create a page for the book. (Follow the link here or from the sidebar for detailed instructions.) Titles without hyperlinks are here either because a participant plans to add a page for them, or because someone has recommended the book but no one has gotten around to checking the book out or posting about it.
