someone once said
In society, artists are on the frontline, creating ideas and shaping culture
Then comes the scientists and engineers who translate those into pragmatic usage
Thirdly, the politicians instigate and utilize those infos of the scientists.
On the last line, philosophers and social scientists reflect, record, and respond to the actions of the politicians.

Where do you hear about new books? Which sources do you trust for recommendations (like friends, book club, recommendations from a book seller online)?

If you just browse for books at a store or library, what makes you pick a particular book? The cover? The length? The title? Something else?

I'm trying to expand my range of books that I read (because I read too much fantasy-type books), so I want to know how other people pick their books... maybe that will get me to be a little more pro-active in finding new books.

I own quite a few books and have read quite a lot of classics but would like to try something else.

I don't like romantic books or girly chick lit, I'm not a fan of those Richard and Judy type books either.

I'm quite interested in learning a bit more about WWI (but I've got Birdsong, so don't recommend that), but I'mquite open to things - but I can't stand "supermarket" books.

And not Harry Potter because I've already read it.
