Number 6: Charles Murray's "Coming Apart"

This one has just been published.  Written by the controversial critic of the American welfare system and the co-author of The Bell Curve, the title of this volume almost says it all.  What it doesn't say is that the data are drawn from whites only in the US over the past half-century.  This one is lengthy, but it is already spawning a lot of talk.
