Reading: An Essential Skill

On a recent business trip I was able to do some reading.

America's Secret War by George Friedman, the CEO of StratFor is an interesting read. The book presents a big picture view of the war on terror (yes, which includes Iraq) and the interplay between the US, its allies, and 'others'.

America Alone by Mark Steyn is not for the weak-minded. One would hope his predictions will not come to pass but, the constant barrage of news from around the world is not encouraging.

And I've nearly finished State of Denial by Bob Woodward. I haven't really come to many conclusions about what's presented in this book yet. It's necessarily a bit dry but, worth reading.
