This book is most fitting for the times we are living in: The Psychology of Stupidity, edited by Jean-Francois Marmion and translated from the French by Liesl Schillinger. It's a collection of interesting essays on what makes people do stupid things, or levels of stupidity, how the internet affects this, and so on. You'll laugh, you might cry, or even nod your head when something sounds familiar ... it was an interesting read!

While not technically a book, I am including one of the wonderful special issues of Life magazine here: Michelle Obama: Her Inspiring Story. It's a nice biography of an amazing woman, and of course, since it's from Life, wonderful pictures, too!
