This
Town
- Mark Leibovich covers Washington, D.C., as chief national
correspondent for The New York Times Magazine. He writes about the
city’s bipartisan lust for power, cash and notoriety. It’s the story of
how Washington became an occupied city; its hold on reality distorted
by greed and ambition. Leibovich pulls no punches, names names, and
reveals the movers, the shakers and the lucrative deals they make — all
in the name of crony capitalism.
"The
Race for What's Left: The Global
Scramble for the
World's Last Resources" - Michael T. Klare is the author of fourteen
books - "Reading this book, it’s hard not to think about
postapocalyptic fiction. Think Margaret Atwood, Cormac McCarthy, and,
most recent, Suzanne Collins’s "Hunger Games." Yet novelists often skip
over the messy parts along the road to dystopia. It’s scary to think
that Klare, far from crying wolf, might be providing the sordid details
in real time." Excerpt Here.

York Review of Books
- "[B]egan during the New York publishing strike of 1963, when its
founding editors, Robert Silvers and Barbara Epstein, and their
friends, decided to create a new kind of magazine—one in which the most
interesting and qualified minds of our time would discuss current books
and issues in depth. Just as importantly, it was determined that the
Review should be an independent publication; it began life as an
independent editorial voice and it remains independent today."
The
Unwinding
- "An Inner History of the New America by George Packer - "A New
York
Times Bestseller - A riveting examination of a nation in crisis, from
one of the finest political journalists of our generation" - Excerpt:
"No one can say when the
unwinding began—when the coil that held
Americans together in its secure and sometimes stifling grip first gave
way. Like any great change, the unwinding began at countless times, in
countless ways—and at some moment the country, always the same country,
crossed a line of history and became irretrievably different."
