A while back I asked for book recommendations. My starter kit is below! I'll try to share brief book reviews as I go through them. 1) One Billion Americans (Matthew Yglesias, Slow Boring) [about 2/3 way through this one) 2) Give People Money (Annie Lowrey, The Atlantic) 3) Caste (Isabel Wilkerson) 4) Freedom from the Market (Michael Konczal, Roosevelt Institute) 5) Tyranny of Merit (Michael Sandel, Harvard University) 6) Capitalism Alone (Branko Milanovic, The City University of New York) 7) Futureproof (Kevin Roose, The New York Times) 8) The American Dream Is Not Dead (Michael Strain, American Enterprise Institute)
Guy: I look forward to your reviews. Bill
Saving for later...
Great. Guy in your notes on Matt's book One Billion Americans - did you mean you're a slow reader or the book actually moves slowly? Just kidding of course- plowing through my reading list monthly but none of the other 7 tackled yet. Why not create a group and IN subscribers jointly read with you? Which is first:-) Cheers-pp
No Plato’s Republic? 😊
I like number 7!
