Hey comrades, I’m looking for some non-fiction book recommendations that aren’t explicitly Marxist, but still interesting or engaging or entertaining.
I’ve re-read a lot of my favorites too many times, so what are your faves? Any topic really.

Not sure of your interests, but “The Problems of Increasing Human Energy” by Nikola Tesla is a fascinating look at a genius who actually pondered the “philosophy” of science. He even discusses his thoughts on robotics, structural aluminum, solar power, and their possible effects on humanity, long before they were even a thing. (short read) “Wizard” by Marc Seifer is a good biography of Tesla.
Both, perhaps inadvertently, become critiques of capitalism, especially when Tesla is viewed against Edison, the Elon Musk of his era; someone getting rich and famous stealing the ideas of others, while never actually creating anything himself.
Ya that does sound pretty dope.
