21 Lessons for the 21st Century, by Yuval Noah Harari (2018, ISBN 978-0-525-51217-2)

A collection of essays that respond to questions from readers of his first two books (Sapiens and Homo Deus.)

Subjects are "The end of history has been postponed", "when you grow up, you might not have a job", "Big Data is watching you", "those who own the data own the future", "humans have bodies", "there is just one civilization in the world", and 15 more...

Like his other books I would regard this as a must read for those who like to think.

The Iliad, Homer, Caroline Alexander (2015, ISBN 978-0-06-204627-7)

I like the Iliad, I have read it several times and have collected many English translations (I even have the Greek version, why?, I don't know as I can't read it.)

The Philosophy Book, by Gregory Bassham (2016, ISBN 978-1-4549-1847-9) Subtitle-- From the Vedas to the New Atheists, 250 Milestones in the History of Philosophy.
I really liked this book. Contains 250 one page descriptions of various philosophy topics arraigned by date. Starts with Vedas and ends with "The Triple Theory of Ethics". In the back of the book are references to other books for each topic, so you can research further. Also, of course, you can research on the internet using things like Wikipedia. Below is page one of the table of contents. As you can see a wide range of topics is covered.
