Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking
by Malcolm Gladwell
Amazon Price: CDN$ 13.51
Customer Review: I thought that Blink is a very good book, because it makes a simple and interesting point about split-second decisions, and then it blends in appropriate examples and anecdotes well. Gladwell's writing is interesting, he never really strays from his ...

Breakthrough: Eight Steps to Wellness
by Suzanne Somers
Amazon Price: CDN$ 18.90
