Anyone here can suggest any good reads that have some sort of PME value?

Here are some of my favorites:

One Bullet Away - Nathaniel Fick
The Sling and the Stone: On War in the 21st Century - Thomas X. Hammes, Colonel (USMC Ret.)
The Passion of Command - Colonel BP McCoy
The Arab Mind - Raphael Patai
Tactics of the Crescent Moon: Militant Muslim Combat Methods - H John Poole
The Art of War - Sun Tzu
On War - Clausewitz


When I have time, I'm going to try find a copy of Mao Tse-Tung's Handbook on Guerrilla Warfare

anyone else have any suggestions? Perhaps books they've found interesting or helpful in the past?

Freakanomics By Steven D. Levitt, Stephen J. Dubner

Good read and very interesting. Not military related, but helps me to relax and gives me things to think about.
