Political books are hard to write. They almost always just play on party lines like Coulter or they make outlandish claims that can never be proven. Anyway, I was thinking that everyone could post the political or pseudo-political book that they feel had the most impact on their beliefs and ideologies. My choice would have to be Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States. I read that in my freshman year of highschool and I never looked at American history the same again. The untold stories of strikes and unions and riots and protests just changed my outlook on everything and opened my eyes to the injustice done by "the system."

So what book influenced your views on politics the most?
