The Rule of the Clan: What an Ancient Form of Social Organization Reveals About the Future of Individual Freedom by Mark S. Weiner
Mr. Weiner presents a compelling case that only a “robust, effective, healthy, transparent, and legitimate state is capable of vindicating the public interest and therefore vindicating the individual as such, rather than as members of a collective group.”

Hannibal and Me: What History’s Greatest Military Strategist Can Teach Us About Success and Failure by Andreas Kluth.
Fight any urge to dismiss Hannibal and Me as boys-only self help. True, the book comes complete with warriors, military strategies, elephants, golf, and a seductress, but this book is a serious and fascinating exploration of issues many of us grapple with on a daily basis. Highly recommended.

Rome: A Cultural, Visual, and Personal History by Robert Hughes.
It is hard not to be in awe of a man who knows so much and is able to share that knowledge with the lesser mortals. Robert Hughes investigates Rome’s earliest days, waving away the fog of its mythic beginnings, then moving effortlessly, though somewhat arbitrarily, through its famous and infamous emperors.
