I really want to read a good book. My library is still under lockdown.

Here's my requirements:

1) Can't be ideological or written by a talking head/public intellectual
2) Teaches me something most people don't understand about politics
3) Is interdisciplinary
4) Published by a university press this past year

So let the self-promotion begin

I'm looking forward to my desk copy of Elizabeth Borgwardt, Christopher McKnight Nichols, and Andrew Preston's Rethinking American Grand Strategy when it comes out (OUP, 2021). May even assign it for a course.

Bastiaan Williams, Violence in Defeat: The Wehrmacht on German Soil, 1944–1945 (CUP) may appeal to some war buffs in the audience.

AE at UBC has a very interesting new immigration book coming out soon (maybe it's already available). The desk copies aren't making their way to me that quickly with the mail slowdowns. Looking forward to it!

Lasch-Quinn’s *Ars Vitae* look interesting but i haven’t had the chance to start it yet. Kass’s new book on Exodus showed up in my mail yesterday; also looks good.
