"Feng Shui For Lunch," by Alan S.F. Lum, with Master Clarence K. Lau (Alan Lum Publishing, $6.88)

A quick Amazon.com check shows there are any number of "idiot" guides to the ancient planning philosophy of feng shui, but they are unlikely to be topped by this attractive little pocketbook. Just the facts, ma'am.

"Holo Mai Pele," by Pualani Kanaka'ole Kanahele (Pacific Islanders in Communications, Edith Kanaka'ole Foundation, $28)

This is a gorgeous companion volume (designed by Barbara Pope) to the PBS "Dance in America" broadcast of the Halau o Kekuhi vision of the Pele legend. The pictures and typography are splendid. A DVD of the broadcast is available as well for $19.99.
