- heresie-dabord 6y agoMr Gates is immensely wealthy and I am the working poor. I'm pleased to see these recommendations -- insofar as they are "selected" works -- showing a practical concern for the good of modern society. I'll recommend Sceptical Essays, Unpopular Essays, and The Conquest of Happiness (all by Bertrand Russell).
