Very good - short and easy to read but with a lot of interesting information. Especially interesting on technology and innovations.

Dan Brown - Angels and Demons
Just finished the prelude to the DaVinci Code finally, simply amazing book for people who enjoy archeology and religious symbolism!

HANS BIELENSTEIN
The bureaucracy of Han Times
One of the most detailed and best books for later han government. Goes really in depth with ranks, what they did, and how the Shih tanking system worked. It useses both literature made at the time on the government system as well as modern books done on the time, comparing and referencing to show how they got there work.
Excellent book I recommend with 4 stars
