What are some good non-fiction books to help me learn about modern current events?
Read multiple news sources. Current events are always happening.
I seriously recommend Cleveland's history of modern middle east. I had to study it in University, and it's truly amazing in its analysis and explanation of modern middle eastern history. It will give you in-depth knowledge about all current events and political developments
The entirety of Foucault.

Thank you. This is exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for. I'm also interested in learning about the modern history of Africa and Asia.

I also recommend History Of The Modern World by Palmer et al. It's a succinct but thorough analysis of the modern history of the world (starting with the French revolution until contemporary developments). It mainly focuses on political, military and economic developments, but it also includes large segments on cultural and social history. It also includes numerous maps, photographs and other visual sources.
If you combine this book with the previous book I mentioned, you will master modern history.
