This isn't a wrap or best of 2025 kind of list. This IDEAS podcast is packed full of all kinds of recommendations from our smart, insightful contributors. We asked them to suggest a work of nonfiction that recently made them think — maybe even think differently — about a particular topic. Their answers cover several genres and varied subjects. Some may surprise you.
Don't worry about writing any titles or names down, we have that covered on our website. The online list also includes a bonus: added recommendations from IDEAS producers. Enjoy!
