Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Ill Fares the Land
by
Tony Judt
Bruce Bikle
, January 01, 2011
Tony Judt's recent book (published right before is death)is addressed to the younger generation, and does a superb job of explaining what we have lost in the past 30-40 years both here in the US and Europe when we became more concerned with wealth and less with a social environment that works for us all. It's an instructive read by a world class historian and thinker, and it bears the attention of those who are asking "where are we going, and how might we change course?"

Two American Political Systems Society
by
Creel Froman
Bruce Bikle
, July 03, 2006
While this book is dated with a mid 80's publication date, it does provide a short, well written explanation about the relationship between economics and government in the US. Much of what Froman predicted about the future some 25 years ago has happened with the "new capitailism" we see today in the US. I would suggest this book to anyone who needs a quick study in these important relationhips. The book would provide a platform for a jump off into more contemporary readings.
