Books
I'm fine listing non-English books - please provide a full link to an information/purchasing page for the book and indicate (in English) what language it's in. I'm not just jumping on Amazon and grabbing every book title from there - you can do that on your own. I'm only adding books that someone has referred, either because they've written it and care enough about it to want it listed here, or because (even better) they own it and like it and want to share that fact with the world.
