April 21 , 2013 by Kelly JonesVista Book Group – Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking
April 19 , 2013 by Chantal WilsonThe Vista Book Group met in March to discuss Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking by Susan Cain. There were five self-described introverts and three ambiverts in attendance. Many of us have heard the terms introvert and extrovert, but few of us have probably heard the term ambivert. According to Ms. Cain and the psychologists whose studies she references in her book, there really is no such thing as pure introvert or extrovert. However, most of us usually tend to lean prominently toward one end of the introvert-extrovert spectrum. If a person falls pretty much in the center of the spectrum, they are known as an ambivert.

April 8 , 2013 by Chantal WilsonMary Roach, a science writer who has a way of making science funny, is out with her new book Gulp: Adventures on the Alimentary Canal. She has written four previous books, including Stiff and Packing for Mars, and also writes for such magazines as National Geographic, New Scientist, Wired and the New York Times Magazine. The publisher’s blurb for Gulp states that “the alimentary canal is classic Mary Roach terrain: the questions explored in Gulp are as taboo, in their way, as the cadavers in Stiff and every bit as surreal as the universe of zero gravity explored in Packing for Mars.”
