Hi,
My favorite nonfiction read last year was “The Power of Yin: Celebrating Female Consciousness” by Hazel Henderson, Jean Houston and Barbara Marx Hubbard, three influential philosophers from the 1970′s. The book explains the vision these three remarkable women have on developments and challenges in the world.
It is a fascinating read showing how great minds discuss great ideas, and it gave me inspiration and hope for our society.
Cheers,
Linda

Maybe its because it came out so late in 2007 that this book was missed but I’d like to see Author Catherine Johnson’s, “Shades of Darkness, Shades of Grace” on the top lists of 2007. Excellent family drama and dualism in the plot and rich character development by the author make this one a for sure top pick in my book. This book is a beautifully sculpted book that deals with the existence of evil in ordinary lives and how that evil pushes others to commit acts they would not even imagine.
