The Corrupting Sea: A Study of Mediterranean History by Peregrine Horden

Impenetrable. Here's a typical sample of the writing (picked at random): "Flexible responses ease the tensions created by population levels far higher than any conceivable carrying capacity of the ambient micoregion – as notably, and eloquently, with the high populations which have been common throughout our period on islands." Good luck getting through this one!
