I'm not an official English teacher, so these may not be brilliantly written. They are offered in a "Get them reading" vein... How to Lie with Statistics. Perhaps "Lies My Teacher Told Me"? More or less anything by Richard Feynman For biographies - biographies or autobiographies of famous computer people (Bill Gates, Steve Wozniak, etc.) My son really enjoyed a book about the the rise of Silicon Valley in general. Alas, I cannot remember the title. (Maybe) Parkinson's Law and The Peter Principle Lots of youngsters enjoy the Darwin Awards books and the "Worst Case Scenario" books. Lots and lots of students are really interested in animé, so if you could find something about that it might be popular. . Oh and I third Fast Food Nation. :-)
