1: Home Run!
Thomas Sowell hits it out of the park on this one. He's thought provoking, succinct, and ideologically on the button. This is a series of 2-3 page writings on a variety of topics that we all think about, but can never articulate in the fresh and clear way that Thomas Sowell does. He just makes sense, period.

2: Wonder why conservatives and liverals see things differently?
I'm a conservative and I have good friends and family memebers who are liberals. The conservatives and liberals I know are all intelligent and concerned people. I could never figure out why there were such differing views on so many topics.
This book nails it. It is from a conservative view, but will be enlightening to all. One of my favorites.

3: Timeless essays by the incomparable Doctor Sowell
A must for anyone who follows the brilliant Dr. Sowell, this book collects a series of his essays and thoughts on politics, race, and common sense. As a special treat he has a section of quotes at the end with gems like "To me, the fact that I have never killed an editor is proof enough that the death penalty deters" and "There are only two types of food- Southern fried chicken and everything else". A reader would be hard pressed to ask for more.
