The intricacies of politics and life in middle east - Tom Friedman is the man to go for. By the way, why don't you show some ads? At least it would take care of webhosting expenses?

I'd hopelessly lose the thread. I've heard good things about "Post American World" and I also <a href="http://www.newsweek.com/id/135380" rel="nofollow"> read this excerpt.</a> It's interesting, but now I don't need to read the book, I got his point :) "Last Mughal" is good too, though I haven't read the Friedman you mentioned. It must be fascinating, he lived in Beirut and his op-eds on Lebanon and Syria show how well he understands that part of the world. <strong>chennairamblings:</strong> Agreed, Rincewind is a brilliant parody of a hero who is completely non-heroic :) I love all the Rincewind books. My order of preference in Terry Pratchett's books are (i) All the Rincewind books; (ii) All books set in Ankh-Morpork; (iii) All other Pratchett books. <strong>aandthirtyeights</strong> Yes, that would be downright scary, given how much spam and viruses and DOS attacks originate from China.

Hmph! *Waggling a finger and admonishing you!* Will do it later today, and coincidentally The Light Fantastic is the only Terry Pratchett I have read so far (I had forgotten its name until I saw the lines here. Rincewind is not someone so easily forgettable :) ) No fair, you already knew what I was reading! Hmph! *Waggling a finger and admonishing you!*

I am currently in the middle of Post American World by F Zakaria, Last Mughal by W Darymple and 'From Beruit To Lebanon' by T Friedman. All of them amazing books but I think I am enjoying TF and WD more than FZ. Nice tag!

Reminds me of book cricket :) You love Pratchett too? He's up there with Douglas Adams as far as I'm concerned, and thankfully much more prolific than Adams. <strong>aandthirtyeights:</strong> I read yours too. You're right, this tag is going around faster than the Olympic torch. <strong>Aishwarya:</strong> Good girl :P For a long time, I knew Joan Aiken only for her biography of Jane Austen..didn't realize she had some good stuff of her own.. <strong>Sujatha:</strong> Ah yes, figuring out who deserves some misery today ;) neha: Loved this tag, it’s easy and quite an interesting one.
