|  | World of Fire by Amy Chua
In WORLD ON FIRE, Chua, a professor at Yale Law School, grapples with the myth that free markets work to spread wealth, instead arguing that they serve only to define and bolster the monied classes. Examining economic and political conditions in Africa, Asia, and South America, Chua examines how this distribution of wealth inflames lines of conflict within countries and across the globe.

 | Travels with Alice by Calvin Trillin
This delightful book collects Calvin Trillin's accounts of his trips to Europe with his wife, Alice, and their two daughters. In Taormina, Sicily, they cheerfully disagree with Mrs. Tweedie's 1904 assertion that the beautiful town is being spoilt, and skip the Grand Tour in favor of swimming holes, table soccer, and taureaux piscine. In Paris, they spend a day on the Champs-Elysees comparing Freetime's le Hitburger to McDonald's Big Mac. In Spain, Trillin wonders whether he will run out of Spanish the way someone might run out of flour or eggs. Filled with Trillin's characteristic humor, Travels with Alice is the perfect book for summer travelers. AUTHOR: Calvin Trillin
