My parents sent me a very nice book by Maarten van Rossem, one of my favorite Dutch pundits. He is a historian and a frequent guest in many TV shows. He's a specialist on U.S. history and politics, but in his latest book he puts the Netherlands and world politics in the spotlight. It's titled De wereld volgens Maarten van Rossem, the world according to Maarten van Rossem, in his gently arrogant style.
