Not really. I am afraid the books I read are either tax related or letters from the Sacred Scriptures (the Bible). Come to think of it, this is quite ironic.
Actually, I am loosely reading "The Mass Observers" by James Hinton, Oxford University Press. It is a full history of the Mass-Observation project in the UK. The founder's intent was to understand the thoughts and attitudes of the British people by sending volunteers to sit and write on their life in pubs and churches. The Ministry of Information caught wind of MO activities and were contracted to investigate British attitudes during WWII. I think they were bought out eventually by Unilever, which is a pretty huge conglomerate based out of the UK. Anyways, a bit academic but I enjoy learning about Harrisons' and Madges' personality and their respective publications that came from their quasi-scientific project.
