Everyone should read:

I know none of you guys will take this advice. But it really does explain politics better than most books. The language is approachable to anyone who reads at an adult level.
Bonus: the book explains why people hate Carly Fiorina! Most sensible people on both sides the isle thinks she was a horrible CEO.
