Not exactly what you want but I highly recommend -

What If? Eminent Historians Imagine What Might Have Been

You get what happened, why it happened, then what might of happened, all explained by differant and highly respected historians.

What if Jesus was pardoned, what if America didn't drop a pair of nukes on Japan, what if the Enigma Machine was never cracked, and tons tons more. The book never gets whacky or stupid and it explains the circumstances around an event very well.

Books I've had to read in college that were pretty solid -

Jihad vs McWorld
The Rich get Richer and the Poor get Prison
Black Demons - The Media's Depiction of hte African American Male Criminal Sterotype
