ENTS, Jennifer posed the question of what is on your bookshelf. I suppose I must admit that I am an avid reader. I have a collection of about 2700 fantasy and science fiction books. Beyond that I have a collection of primarily science books. So what is on my bookshelf is really a choice of what is on part of many bookshelves. I shall list part of one that houses my core tree-related books among others. To some degree what is on a particular shelf is constrained by the size of the shelf and the dimensions of the books.

I chould add to my list books like A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawing, and The Panda's Thumb by Stephen Jay Gould to make the shelf look more impressive. I do have those books, they just aren't on this particular shelf.
