Here are some books and audio books I have read that I can recommend to
those that are interested.

A 10-Week Recovery Program for Overcoming Panic, Anxiety, & Phobias (BOOK +
AUDIO)
by Shirley Babior, Carol Goldman
http://www.amazon.com/10-Week-Recovery-Program-Overcoming-Anxiety/dp/1570251517/sr=8-5/qid=1170288064/ref=sr_1_5/002-2454343-3309650?ie=UTF8&s=books
(I found this to be quite good and highly recommend it over paying a fortune
for a psychologist, it does require WORK though, you cant just sit down and
listen to the tapes)

Social Intelligence: The New Science of Human Relationships (Hardcover)
by Daniel Goleman
http://www.amazon.com/Social-Intelligence-Science-Human-Relationships/dp/0553803522/sr=1-1/qid=1170288456/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-2454343-3309650?ie=UTF8&s=books
(Good background info on the way the brain works with social interactions,
nothing to do with CBT)

Finding Serenity in the Age of Anxiety (Paperback) by Robert Gerzon
http://www.amazon.com/Finding-Serenity-Anxiety-Robert-Gerzon/dp/055337978X/sr=1-5/qid=1170288361/ref=sr_1_5/002-2454343-3309650?ie=UTF8&s=books
(This was one of the best books I recall reading unfortunatly I gave it away
to help a friend who never returned it, it was one of the first ones I read
though)

The Hidden Face of Shyness (Paperback)
by Franklin Schneier, Lawrence Welkowitz
http://www.amazon.com/Hidden-Face-Shyness-Franklin-Schneier/dp/0380783991/sr=1-1/qid=1170288654/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-2454343-3309650?ie=UTF8&s=books
(This one has good info, I found it a bit clinical for my liking, apart from
the info I cant say it helped me in a practical sense)

Here are also some other books I recommend anyone read, unsocial phobic
related ;
The road less travelled - M Scott Peck
The road less travelled and beyond - M Scott Peck
Further along the road less travelled - M Scott Peck
The tibetan book of living and dying - Sogyal Rinpoche
Bhagavad-Gita as it is - A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

Hope that helps someone.

Thanks for your recommendation. I will try to order some of it via local
book store.

I read a Eckart Tolle's book "Power of now" , and it helped me in few
moments (that would than be my recommend.).

There are three Social Anxiety books I link to on my website which
have helped me, the easiest read and therefore the easiest to get
started on is "Diagonally Parked in A Parallel Universe" by Signe
Dayhoff. It has special chapters on dating and job hunting for SA
people which I found particularly interesting.

I also enjoyed Eckhart Tolle's book and in fact went to a 2-day even
in Findhorn, Scotland to hear him speak. I love his philosophy but
found it hard to put into practice. Probably about time I re-read that
book!
