The Invention of Yesterday: A 50,000-Year History of Human Culture, Conflict, and Connection

Brilliant and empathetic.
I don't think this is the kind of book you could sit down and read for hours. It's so comprehensive, it almost gets in its own way. Having said that, I've been dipping in and out of this book for fifteen to twenty minute stretches for the last three months, and it's been really great. I love how non-western centric it is.
Humorous, informative, and eye-opening, but probably not for the casual non-fiction reader.
