Bought "Strength Training Anatomy 2nd Edition" on Sunday. Quite a crowd at the Ngee Ann City flagship store.
Thought of buying God Is Not Great & The God Delusion, but a friend has the former and I've read a fair amount of stuff along similar veins to the latter, so passed on both.
Is there any relation between PageOne @ Vivocity and Kinokuniya? There is a PageOne store section at the Ngee Ann location.
I probably haven't read as much on this as you have, so, I will eventually get the Hitchens book. I got the Dawkins one. I will also be getting the Sam Harris volume.
Which of Harris' two books? The End of Faith, or Letter to a Christian Nation?
Forgot to mention: the erroneous and incredibly flawed argument that "Theory A does not explain a gap in the evidence, therefore Theory B must be correct", demonstrates just how ignorant (or deliberate ignorance?) intelligent design "scientists" are of philosophy of science, especially the debates over the concept of "falsification". I think the canonical book to read on falsification is Lakatos and Malgrave edited volume, "Criticism and the Growth of Knowledge".

'The End of Faith'. I was reading the bit about Islam in a bookstore recently. Heh.
