Do books about Central Asia qualify for this group? If so, I'd recommend 'Taxi to Tashkent - Two Years with the Peace Corps in Uzbekistan'. Middle aged guy joins the Peace Corps, goes to Uzbekistan, and teaches about HIV/AIDS prevention to fundamentalist Muslims.

I'd be fascinated to know why flemingt's message was flagged. What is it that people find objectionable?

They posted everywhere to promote their book, if you look at the link, rebeccanyc explains why it was tagged. Hope that helps. Don't shoot the messenger!
