Possible good new reads:

- The Ascent of Money: A financial History of the World (11.5 hrs, $18)
- The World is Curved: Hidden Dangers to the Global Economy (10.5 hrs, $21)
- The Partnership: The Making of Goldman Sachs (33hrs, $32)
- The Pixar Touch: The Making of a Company (9.25 hrs, $18)
- Wealth, War and Wisdom (12 hrs, $25)

I’ll probably go with “Wealth, War and Wisdom” first as it has a quite interesting premise… We’ll see.

Does America Need a Foreign Policy?
By: Henry Kissinger

Michelangelo and the Pope’s Ceiling
By: Ross King

The Enlightened Despots (Unabridged)
By: Geoffrey Bruun

China Road: A Journey into the Future of a Rising Power (Unabridged)
By: Rob Gifford

I’ve already started listening to Kissinger’s foreign policy book and it’s an absolutely incredible read. If you’re interested in international relations and recent history, I think you’ll also find this one enlightening. I might put it up there with Legacy of Ashes, the history of the CIA, which was also an incredible read!
