- Property Outlaws: How Squatters, Pirates, and Protesters Improve the Law of Ownership
by PeƱalver and Katyal. The book explains benefits of occasional disregard of private property.

by Zittrain. The book is about battle over control of the internet or how the internet is increasingly controlled.
