I have been trying to spread out more in science, history, political science and philosophy a bit, but for the most part, I have no idea where I want to go. Anybody have any really good reads?

He's not an author. He's a writer - a lousy one at that.

Does the book consist of "They have less money than other classes"?

OP here... I think Hitchens is a splendid writer/author or whatever you may consider him. These seem like pretty good books *jots down the names of them* when I head to the book store next weekend Ill give them a little read if I can find them, and if I like ill purchase
