If I had to pick just [i]one[/i] favorite book, then according to my current mood, it would probably be Oswald Spengler's [i]The Decline of the West: A Morphology of World-History[/i].
I think the last book I finished cover-to-cover was Tim Marshall's [i]Prisoners of Geography: Ten Maps That Explain Everything About the World[/i], though I feel like I'm forgetting about something more recent than that (I'm usually reading a lot of books all at once, so it's hard to keep track of what I finished last).
The main book I have been reading the last few days is Brian Clegg's [i]Are Numbers Real?: The Uncanny Relationship of Mathematics and the Physical World[/i].

Thanks. The last two make extremely light and accessible reading, but I cannot recommend [i]Decline[/i] in good faith unless you have at least a Masters-level knowledge or so of general world history going into it.
