What's the book that most influenced you on critical/rational thinking?
The website promotes a list (http://rationality.org/reading/ http://rationality.org/reading/). I have only read "Thinking, Fast and Slow" and I am looking for HN users favorites.
- projectileboy 12y agoThere's a book called Seeking Wisdom be Peter Bevelin that I really enjoyed. He also has useful lists of checklists in the back.
- fcanela 12y agoThanks. Seems out of print on Amazon [1]. Adding it to my wishlist anyway, maybe I buy a used one. [1] www.amazon.com/Seeking-Wisdom-Darwin-Munger-3rd/dp/1578644283/
- duncanawoods 12y agoOut of that list: I found "Predictably Irrational" to repeat a lot of the content about biases from TFTS. Its well written and not a bad book by any means but I regretted the time investment after TFTS. I found "Decisive: How to Make Better Choices in Life and Work" to be very practical aiming to giving some real tools to use some of which I hadn't come across before.
