God Is a Man of War: The Problem of Violence in the Old Testament (Stephen De Young)
An exposition and explanation of why God sometimes commands violence, and of why the Old and New Testaments are not in tension or contradiction. With my own thoughts on justice, in particular the appalling concept of "social justice."

Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland (Christopher R. Browning)
In these strange days of violent medical apartheid and state-organized hatred directed at those who will not comply with criminally insane dictates, Christopher Browning's classic work on how ordinary men end up participating in mass killing has taken on fresh relevance.

Plutocrats: The Rise of the New Global Super-Rich and the Fall of Everyone Else (Chrystia Freeland)
An interesting, if flawed, analysis of rich people, which I found particularly interesting because I am rich myself, and much richer than I was when I wrote this! (This article was first published October 30, 2018.)
