Review the book options at this link:
http://www.psychologicalscience.com/motivation_emotion/2010/01/books-general-readership.html
There are fiction and non-fiction options, short books, longer books. You should choose a book that you are genuinely interested in, and consider this an opportunity to read something that you enjoy (even though it is also for a class). Browse the informational links (provided by Amazon) to decide on your book.
Many of these books are available at the UNI library and our local Cedar Falls and Waterloo Public Libraries. You may also purchase them at a local book seller like Barnes and Noble in Waterloo, or online at Amazon or other online merchants. Amazon also has digital options for your IPhone, Nook, or Kindle.
You should order/get your book THIS WEEK, regardless of your chosen deadline.
As a comment to this post, tell me the title of the book you have chosen and your selected due date. Look at the course calendar and choose a Tuesday or Thursday during the semester. You may not choose a date that falls during Spring Break, the last week of class, or finals week.
Allow sufficient time to read your book and write your report. Information on how to write your report is available via the course resources tab.
I will review The Mind at Work, and submit it on 04/12/12.
