The first book "Islam without fear" (1) was picked by Toure Mohamed. This book is about "the story of a group of centrist Islamist intellectuals who call themselves the "New Islamic Trend." On page 15 it says: "With exaggerated seriousness, the prominent Islamic columnist Ahmed Bahgat reports in al Ahram of August 13, 1995, on "breaking news" from the art world". I think that would be interesting book for muslim people.
The second book "U.S. Economic Policy Toward Africa" (2) was picked by Sengwiza Loris. This book is about how and why the U.S. is interested in the success of African economy. On page 15 it says: "For instance, the foreign aid appropriations legislation for 1991 declared in part that the purpose of DFA was "to help the poor majority of men and women in sub-Saharan Africa to participate in a process of long-term development through economic growth that is equitable, participatory, environmentally sustainable, and self-reliant." I don't know anything about economic policy in Africa and I'm not interesting in it.
The third book "Horse Thief" (3) was picked by Alkahtan Abdulmohsen. This book is about how one man stoled horse and then went to get adventures with that horse. On page 15 it says: "Only merriment as they nipped and nuzzledone another." That might be interesting story to read in a free time.
The fourth book "The Development of Nigerian Foreign Policy"(4) was picked by Monijesu Shonibare. This book is about Nigeria's foreign policy. On page 15 it says: "But it would be wrong to assume that Nigerian political parties, at the beginning of the election campaign, had definitely formulated policies for the nation to follow in world affairs." I don't know anything about foreign policy in Nigeria and I'm not interesting in it.
The fith book "The Opium War 1840-1842" (5) was picked by ZeYu Chen. This book is about about history of China which was between 1840 and 1842. On page 15 it says: "The south China city of Canton lies in the latitude of Calcutta, Mecca, and Havana, on the left bank of the Canton River seventy-five miles from the sea." It is interesting to know the history of different countries, including China!
