Unequal Protection,

subtitled The Rise Of Corporate Dominance And The Theft Of Human Rights, by Thom Hartmann.
I'm about halfway through this and it's pretty impressive. Lots of info on the history of corporations, how and why they began, how they were able to amass the power and wealth they have, everything.
Some of it seems to be written more for someone with a background in this rather than a casual reader, but if it's a subject you're interested in, it's a keeper.
