Paragraph alignment

Hey,
I am working on my first book layout in InDesign. Which paragraph alignment is most common for a nonfiction book? It seems like "Justify with last line aligned left" would be the standard, but I wanted to double-check.

Thank you very much for any help!

That's most common for most typeset work. I'd say a minority of fiction uses the other common choice, ragged right.
