On Suicide Bombing by Talal Asad.
Its not about suicide bombers themselves, but a cultural analysis of Western liberals and how they react to what they call terrorism. The book presents some arguments that are disturbing and hard to swallow. Difficult read.

I've felt motivated to reread Democracy The God That Failed. It's still probably the best chud book ever made

IMO you should read "A Short History of Man" by the same author instead, if you haven't already; it's almost as good as "Democracy: the God that failed".

Going to bat for Bruce Catton's Centennial History of the Civil War trilogy & Army of the Potomac trilogy, and Jamees McPherson's "Battle Cry of Freedom" & "For Cause and Comrades: Why Men Fought in the Civil War." Some of the best books on the American Civil War you can find. Perfectly break down the conflict and takes a look at the motivations & goals of both sides of the war.

In a similar vain, "Company Aytch" and "All for the Union" are both great books giving the perspectives from common soldiers on both sides of the war.

I always forget I told myself I’d give this a read a while back.
Pic rel is what I’m working through now.

Anti-Oedipus is legitimately the best book I've ever read.
