Right now: "Never Enough: The Neuroscience and Experience of Addiction" (Judith Grisel) Recommend. Addict turned neuroscientist who doesn't hold back, so a good mix of gritty details— > After I got sober, it took me a little over a year to go a single day without wishing for a drink, but it was more than nine years before my craving to get high abated. —and science. Before that: "Educated: A Memoir" (Tara Westover) Recommend. A good break from typical non-fiction books: easy to read, sometimes thrilling, and emotional. Before that: "The Code: Silicon Valley and the Remaking of America" (Margaret Pugh O'Mara) Don't recommend. I really wanted to like this book, and I believe some of the themes are important and aren't often discussed. E.g., the support the Valley received from politicians, the lobby groups, the size of military spending back in the day… It's possible my expectations were in the wrong place—I wanted to be inspired like with "The Idea Factory" (Jon Gertner), "The Soul of a New Machine" (Tracy Kidder), "Dealers of Lightning" (Michael A Hiltzik), etc.
