"Waking The Qi: An Introduction to Qigong" by John Munro

"Understanding Understanding: Essays on Cybernetics and Cognition" by Heinz von Foerster
"In these essays Heinz von Foerster discusses some of the fundamental principles that govern how we know the world and how we process the information from which we derive that knowledge. Included are path-breaking articles concerning the principles of computation in neural nets (1967), the definition of self-organizing systems (1960), the nature of cognition (1970), as well as recent expansions on these themes (e.g. "How recursive is communication", 1993).

At the Biological Computer...>>
