Do not read Bs

  1. 90 % of books published are an insult to intelligence is their prerogative. Reading is like eating. You have to develop a taste and you acquire taste only eating good food. If you used to eat meatball and overcooked spaghetti, you will never know what is tasty food. in order to dismantle the bad taste reinforced by reading lousy reviews you start reading book like ON BULLSHIT by professor Harry G. Frankfurt, Princeton University Press,2005 .After reading this book, you realized how much bs is around you.
  2. You will be stronger to distinguish between bs and real thinking. Do not worry if at the beginning it will be not easy.
  3. After Frankfurt book you can read the book of Jonathan Rauch, Kindly inquisitor. After, let me know.
