The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion by Jonathan Haidt
It changed the way I think and most of my existing ideas.
- boulos 9y agoThis book didn’t exist until that long ago, so it doesn’t seem like a fair choice for “I wish I had read this when I was younger”.
- aaachilless 9y agoIn my opinion the goal of a thread like this isn't to share missed opportunities but to highlight potential opportunities for readers today.
- sixhobbits 9y agoI was wondering about that, but even if I'd read it in 2012 I would have benefited more than when I finally found it. And seeing as this is hypothetical, why not "books I wish I had read if they had existed earlier"..
- RobAtticus 9y agoI'll second this one. Very easy to read and flows really well in my opinion. He builds up ideas very naturally with just the right balance of academic and colloquial.
