all quiet on the western fronti think that students should be encouraged to read, anything they like, just get them into books.

Yanny - I felt the same way about Jurassic Park (book vs. movie). So much is left out, sub-plots in the movie that just die out…
-
I need a book (work of non-fiction) from an American perspective on any topic from World War 1 and later. I was thinking of something on the Korean War or Cold War. This is for my American History course. Can anyone here recommend something good?
-
High School Students?
-
I just bought Slander by Ann Coulter…excellent read. On the same note, Sean Hannity’s new book was probably better. :P
As for high school students, you’d see me reccomend a book covering politics way before I’d ever reccomend something by Shakespeare.
-
I’d recommend Empire by Hardt and Negri and some works by Stanislav Lem. Other than that, I’m not so sure.
-
Emu,
Diplomacy by Henry Kissinger
And Deviant, Coulter is a way better Polemicist than Hannity ever could be.
-
I’ve heard Hannity’s book was pretty good actually. I might just go buy it tonight.
-
Has anyone here read Fast Food Nation?
I had no idea slaughterhouse workers were treated so badly.
NO more McDonalds for me. I already didn’t like them, but htis is the last straw.

I read an article in some newspaper a while back saying how bad Wal-Mart employees were treated :) Forced to work 2-3 extra hours a day without pay or be fired… forced to smile in your sleep…
