I'm looking for some bedside reading material, but I'm not interested in technique or how-to books of which I have plenty (I can only read how to hand cut dovetails so many times). I recently read George Nakashima's "Soul of a Tree" (see my other post about the upcoming Nakashima show in LA). Before that I enjoyed Ross Laird's "Grain of Truth: the Ancient Lessons of Craft" and David Pye's "The Nature and Art of Workmanship". I guess I enjoy the more "philosophical" type of writing about woodworking, craftsmanship, and design.
Do you have any favorites along the "philosophical" line? What would you recommend (or NOT recommend)?
TIA, Ian
