Re: Summer Reading
"Guns, Germs & Steel" by Jared Diamond is very very good. Won a Nonfiction Pulitzer a few years back.
A history of bombing, Sven Lindquist, is also very good and interesting |

Also, "The collapse of complex societies", Joseph Tainter is also supposed to be good, a bit on the dry and achademic side, but good. |
