My thread on what political books are you reading didn't wash, so here is a thread to show people which new books are out that tackle important issues in society and politics. this might work out better. A lot of the books I will mention will come from interviews I hear on various radio and television shows.
New:
Watermelons: The Green movements true colors
http://www.amazon.com/Watermelons-G...7409/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1309312346&sr=8-1
I heard the author of this book on the Dennis Miller show. They discussed the anti-people aspect of modern environmentalism, the environmental damage created by windmills, the cost in lives of banning DDT, and various other topics of an environmental, political nature.

About the book:
In Watermelons, Delingpole explains the Climategate scandal, the cast of characters involved, their motives and methods. He delves into the background of the organizations and individuals who have sought to push global warming to the top of the political agenda, showing that beneath their cloak of green lurks a heart of red.
Watermelons shows how the scientific method has been sacrificed on the altar of climate alarmism. Delingpole mocks the green movement's pathetic record of apocalyptic predictions, from the "population bomb" to global cooling, which failed to materialize. He reveals the fundamental misanthropy of green ideology, "rooted in hatred of the human species, hell bent on destroying almost everything man has achieved".
Delingpole gives a refreshing voice to widespread public skepticism over global warming, emphasising that the "crisis" has been engineered by people seeking to control our lives by imposing new taxes and regulations. "Your taxes will be raised, your liberties curtailed and your money squandered to deal with this 'crisis'", he writes.
At its very roots, argues Delingpole, climate change is an ideological battle, not a scientific one. Green on the outside, red on the inside, the liberty-loathing, humanity-hating "watermelons" of the modern environmental movement do not want to save the world. They want to rule it.
Delingpole is the bestselling British writer who helped expose the Climategate scandal in his Daily Telegraph blog. He also writes a column for The Spectator. His other books include 365 Ways to Drive a Liberal Crazy (Regnery, 2010) and Welcome to Obamaland (Regnery, 2009).
