Why couldn't you go through a whole book wrote by Chomsky?
Noam Chomsky is a genius. I usually don't agree with his politics but his writings on language and thought are incredibility insightful. Human language reveals the structure of the human mind. For a long time he's been the top Linguist in the the world. Here's his web site with some of his writings.

You mean there's other things besides the net and television!? :jester:
I need to finish Pompeii by Robert Harris.
I have a lot of books I've bought that need to be read. I procrastinate too much.

Yes, I know who he is, I remember him from some study on cognition and linguistics in one of my classes. He writes in a very concise style.
Reading three books in parallel right now:
1. Latest Reason magazine (well, not exactly a book I suppose).
2. Dying to Win: The Strategic Logic of Suicide Terrorism by Robert Pape
3. Life, Death and Everything in Between: A paramedic's memoirs by Stephen Kelly Grayson
Next up on the list:
1. A foreign policy of freedom by Dr. Ron Paul
2. Imperial Hubris: Why the West is losing the war on terror by Michael Scheuer.
I also bought the entire DVD set of Milton Friedman's most excellent "Free To Choose" series to gift a friend in California before I leave for Vietnam at the end of this month...
cheers,

This Hubris is also on my growing list, although the strongest statement on this mess so far was Failed States. I can't believe that anyone in the US actually believes all the lies at this point, it's apparent that the rest of the world does not;

Excellent classic, although I think it should be read along with 1984. Somewhere in between the two is US policy.
Patriot Act by D.A.Hanks
That sounds good. I'll come back to this one.
A lot of books on outright greed and abuse of power these days. Laws, moral or otherwise only need to be followed by others.
