I'm convinced some of the most important work being done in publishing right now is in the children's non-fiction market. Finding non-fic that is accessible to those in the 10-13 bracket is nigh on impossible - you need something more substantial than a DK picture book, but nothing as hard going as adult non-fic can be.

This book is a perfect example of a book that hits that sweet spot. Klein and Stefoff make for an excellent team, with Klein's ideas and work neatly distilled down into highly readable text which doesn't condescend to the teenage reader. It doesn't shy away from being openly anti-capitalist, and doesn't moderate its politics either. I can't wait to share this with the kids.
