		<description>Sounds great Phil. 

Something easy to get started might be good too. We had mentioned before Bill Duncan's 'Smiling School for Calvanists'. Certainly entertaining.
Or some poetry - 'A Book of Lives' by national poet Edwin Morgan draws together themes from a lifetime of work documenting regeneration in Scotland, discrimination, "love and sadness, energy and sheet delight". 

I'm really keen that this book group functions well from the outset. Some tentative suggestions of how to do this
 - whoever choses the book begins with a short introduction and motivation
-  have a rotating chair to keep discussion constructive and allow quieter members a voice
-  source library choice where possible
-  one member of the group each session donates their copy of the book/ text to The Manifesto library for all to use and borrow</description>
