I am currently reading Samuel Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations & the remaking of World Order".
This book provides an excellent insight to readers baffled by developments following in the wake of the abruptly terminated Cold War, The Clash of Civilizations offers a radically different prism through which to view world politics.
Huntington offers a different global picture: the onset of an era in which conflict will be deep-seated and endemic and in which the West will find itself competing at severe disadvantage.
The adversaries in this great struggle will be blocs of nations—"civilizations with similar ideologies like Islamic countries" in Huntington’s construct—that will define their identity and determine their interests and loyalties primarily in cultural terms. "Peoples and countries with similar cultures are coming together," Huntington writes. "Peoples and countries with different cultures are coming apart." In essence, culture is eclipsing both nationalism and ideology as the nexus of politics. During the Cold War, he suggests, the fundamental question was, "Which side are you on?" Now the question has become, "Who are you?"
Worth reading...

i'm examining some. :s. a million.A e book approximately mafia, haha. that's a form of compilation of assorted articles and bills. i might propose it, easily. 2. Godlike - Richard Hell. so-so. that's o.k. whilst he continues to be to the extra poetic section, yet his prose could be iffy at cases. i admire the theory however, and in case you like Richard Hell, that's nicely worth a examine. 3. Replay - Ken Grimwood. that's like Groundhog Day, yet over years instead of days! I enjoyed it. 4. representative German Poetry. that's an previous due nineteenth century e book of German poems with the English translation on the section. i like it because of the fact i'm attempting to verify German and having the nuances and idioms of language is simpler, and the place extra helpful to discover it than poetry? a million. Oh, jeez, a mutually as in the past. I constantly forget to deliver returned the books and then the previous due costs are so severe i might besides have long gone to the e book place. 2. i think of the full Silence of the Lambs sequence. i might long gone in for a maths e book and whilst they did no longer have that I in simple terms went with the serial killer topic instead. 3. i do no longer think of so. that's have been given crazily heavy secure practices (gated and barred doors/domicile windows, steel detectors, secure practices) so i do no longer see them letting in musicians to play. :l.

It's Not Only Me by Jodi Pastore.
It touches on just about all aspects of life, with a little bit of comedy thrown in. It;s like a self help book that makes you smile.
I think the only way to get it is on the author's website, ItsNotOnlyMe.com

I'm reading a short book called "Coraline", but I don't remember the Author's name. It's a pretty good read, but a bit short, and more geared towards people my age (i'm 15).
I just finished Eoin Colfer's "Artemis Fowl" series, and those are great. I recomend it to everyone, espically if you like Fairies.

In Sheeps Clothing, It is for my Adult Institutional Supervision class. But I would read it even if I wasn't in this class.
It teaches you how to spot manipulative people and how to deal with them.
Good book, I would recommend it to anyone.

I'm currently in the middle of "Discourses of Brigham Young," selected and arranged by John A. Widtsoe, last copyrighted in 1954 by David O. McKay.
In it you will find many gems of truth and thought as it pertains to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
