People of the Bomb
4.5 stars. Not quite a full 5 only for reasons of discontinuity.
Highly recommended for anyone interested in a theoretical framework for thinking about global politics. Even just the first chapter, on curiosity and surprise, could change your outlook. Enloe reminds us that a willingness to be surprised is essential not only to feminism, but to any genuine intellectual curiosity and to any system of ethics that seeks to decentralize one's own privileged perspective.
As a side note, I met Enloe at a lecture in October 2016. She is every bit as awesome as she sounds.
