Books to travel with to Atlanta 2010

[IKE]

I really enjoy the opportunity to catch up on reading while traveling. Please share any good books in this thread that would be good for travel. I am hoping to finish my current book:

Tribal Leadership

this book was recommended by a former student, and I am really enjoying it. It is a business leadership book that I feel has a lot of applicability to achieveing that next level for FIRST teams. I am only 2/3rds of the way through it, but it has been very useful so far.

If you have Mark Leon as an MC bring your math book.

[Akash Rastogi]

The Namesake

Confessions of an Economic Hitman

[Don Wright]

Leadership and Self-Deception

[GGCO]

I'm bringing LINUX In A Nutshell By: Ellen Siever

[Karibou]

I always bring Little Women (Louisa May Alcott) when I travel...but that may or may not just be because it's a book that I've read many times and love to re-read. Being in a car or on a plane for many hours gives me an excuse to do it.

[JamesBrown]

Born to Run. It doesn't relate to Robotics, but it is a great book. Even if you are not a runner it does offer quite a bit of insight into the fact that all of the technology we are developing may not actually help us.

[Peter Matteson]

I'll probably be working my way through "Eating the Dinosaur" by Chuck Klosterman.

[Nawaid Ladak]

It's a quick read, but really good

[Joe Ross]

The Engineering Design of Systems: Models and Methods Dennis M. Buede.
A Practical Guide to SysML: The Systems Modeling Language Friedenthal, Moore and Steiner

OK, maybe not suggested for everyone, but that's what I'm reading.

The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch is something you should read at Champs, so you can get inspired while you're getting inspired.

[Andrew Schreiber]

I'll probably work my way through House of Leaves or Watchmen on the plane ride down. I find my brain works best when I let it take a trip to fantasy land now and again.

Freakonomics. I don't remember the author....Steve somebody.

[JaneYoung]

A Big Little Life: A Memoir Of A Joyful Dog by Dean Koontz

Another inspirational book on the way to being inspired. Why not pull out all of the stops and strum the heart strings along the way? This is a lovely and enriching book.

The Pillars of the Earth, Ken Follett.

My favorite book. A historical fiction, if you're into that sort of thing
1,017 pages paperback, I read it in less than a day.

EDIT:

Also, there is another book if you're looking for something inspirational...same author, but the book catalogues the story of Ross Peroux (he ran for president way back).

On Wings of Eagles, Ken Follett
