    Designer Carey Maloney's first book is an obsessive, compulsive, brilliantly high-low primer to all the things - furniture, art, objects - that make a house truly personal. "Stuff was written to inspire readers to explore new areas of collecting," Maloney says. "The idea is for us all to learn something - myself happily included - about a lot of subjects, from ivory to taxidermy, from Regency penwork to protest art."

    Stuff: The M (Group) Interactive Guide to Collecting, Decorating With, and Learning About, Wonderful and Unusual Things. By Carey Maloney. Pointed Leaf Press; $65
