It's not in there yet (and yea gods I can't add to my reading list for the year), but I'd like to recommend The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space by Gerard K O'Neill. Yes, it's that O'Neill. This is the book that provides a realistic plan for humans to live in space using technology we had in the 70s (and which has gotten only more practical in the intervening time).


I bought that book in hardcover when it was first published and have been an L5er ever since. Unfortunately we haven't made much progress in that direction since then.
