A series of short reviews on a variety of different books.
This is the second Ben Shapiro book I’ve read. Just like the first, there was some good stuff, and some not-so-good stuff. My review of Brainwashed, by Ben Shapiro: https://youtu.be/8ptxqlvw_94 This review is also available on YouTube and BitChute.
My reading primarily focuses on philosophy and science. I was recommended this book by a law student as an introduction to law. Great book that covers a lot in a short time. I recommend! This video is also available on...
Another review that went on longer than planned, but it’s such a great book. Easily in the Top 5. Highly recommend. A+++ This video is available on YouTube and BitChute.
A very tough but fair book that I highly recommend to both the pro and anti religious. Definitely worth reading. This review is also on YouTube and BitChute.
I enjoy listening to Penn’s podcast, and if you do too, you’ll enjoy this book. This review is also available on YouTube and BitChute.
A collection of great essays by Rothbard, only recommended for those that have already read Man, Economy, and State first. Man, Economy, and State review: nkreider.com/tmr29 This review is also available on YouTube and BitChute.
This is my first time reading something by Jimmy Carter. He’s far more progressive than he is liberal, which I see as a negative. After reading this, I would say it’s great when speaking of foreign situations, but not so...
A very comprehensive book on Austrian economics. Highly recommended. https://mises.org/library/man-economy-and-state-power-and-market This review is also available on YouTube and BitChute.
I readable textbook on the workings of Bitcoin and related technologies. The information is still relevant to Bitcoin (minus the lightning network upgrade), but only lightly covers other crypto technologies that have risen since the publishing of this book. Overall,...
Another great book by Thomas Sowell! My TMR on Civil Rights: Rhetoric or Reality This review is also available on YouTube and BitChute.
A great overview of economic history from the perspective of Murray Rothbard. Free version: https://mises.org/library/austrian-perspective-history-economic-thought This review is also available on YouTube and BitChute.
A great book for the layman on how the world of work is much better now than it used to be, even with automation! This review is available on YouTube and BitChute.
A great book for the average person on using reason and evidence to create and understand arguments. It’s helped me greatly in developing my ability to debate. Highly recommend for the average layman. This video is also available on YouTube...
This book contains transcripts of foreign policy speeches by Ron Paul. Some good stuff, if you’re fine reading speech transcripts. This review is available on YouTube and BitChute.
Ben Shapiro’s book “Brainwashed” was a great book for conservatives back in 2004, but not so great today. This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, and DTube.
My review of Barbarians: How Baby Boomers, Immigrants, and Islam Screwed My Generation, by Lauren Southern. This review is also available in video format on YouTube, BitChute, and DTube.
Sorry for this one being longer than usual, but I wanted to make sure I did this episode right. It’s an important book, and I recommend. This review is available on YouTube, BitChute, and DTube.
I’ve also reviewed another book by David Horowitz: Black Book of The American Left Vol 1, available at www.nkreider.com/tmr27 This video is also available on YouTube, BitChute and DTube.
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Sam Harris, and a few bad things. I really enjoyed this book, but I hope he eventually writes a follow-up to this book with his case for objective morality. Another proof of...
I have a few disagreements with David Horowitz on politics, but he definitely knows much more about the world than I do. He lived on the far left, and is now part of the moderate right. He has a lot...
I really enjoy content by Tom Woods. This book was easy to read with lots of good stuff. This review is also available on YouTube, DTube, and BitChute.
I have different thoughts for each component of this book. I started out disagreeing with the concept of it, but I did enjoy reading it. This review is available on YouTube, DTube, and BitChute.
So I just read “Conscience of a Liberal” by Paul Krugman. I always recommend reading things you disagree with, but in this case I’ll save you time by telling you it’s just not worth reading. Its a book of Krugman...
This is a must read for all conservatives. It’s important to recall the original principles of the conservative movement. Maybe send this to some republicans. This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
This is a very enjoyable series of essays by Murray Rothbard. Definitely worthwhile if you’re a fan. Not so much if you’re not already a fan of him. This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
My advice: Read the table of contents, and if you haven’t heard of them before, then maybe read the book. Chances are, you’ve already heard everything this book can tell you. This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube,...
A decent book that works to really show the appropriate mindset when looking into things. This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
This is a newer and more updated book than Frames of Mind. If you’re going to read up on the Theory of Multiple Intelligences, this is the book to read. If we’re ignoring the validity of the theory, the book...
Scott Adams is a fantastic writer and superbly explains the tactics of persuasion we saw during the election. This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
It took me a span of about two years to read this. It was overall a great book, though pretty outdated now. I have mixed feelings about Ann Coulter, tho this book did raise my opinion of her, because regardless...
This was by far the most depressing book I’ve ever read. Definitely a must read. The book is very long, so I listened to a free audiobook version, located here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccASsjhhgP8 This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube,...
I wasn’t planning on reviewing this book because, unlike every other book I’ve read, I don’t remember a single thing about it. But I suppose that’s a reason to review it. I like Ron Paul, but this book didn’t withstand...
If you haven’t read Atlas Shrugged, read that first. If you have read Atlas Shrugged and enjoyed it, definitely read this. This review is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
While not my favorite book, it’s definitely in my top 5, as well as the most influential to me. I first read it when I was 15, and it was my first ‘philosophical’ book. This video is also on YouTube, BitChute,...
A short but good book on government intervention in science and R&D. What is the appropriate amount of science funding? Outro Music: A New Beginning, by Bensound (www.Bensound.com) This video is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
‘For The New Intellectual’ is a good book if you’re out to understand objectivism as quickly as possible, and aren’t willing to read Atlas Shrugged. I would also recommend ‘Goddess of The Market’ by Jennifer Burns (also reviewed on this...
Everyone knows the dystopian world in 1984, but few people know the story of the main character. That’s because the main character’s story isn’t really that worth reading. Winston is only a means to explain this world. I’m glad to...
I consider it my least favorite of her four fiction books. The first half is rather blah, but the second half makes up for it. If you’re a fan of Ayn Rand’s other stuff, I’d say it’s worth reading. If...
The book isn’t necessarily bad. I just don’t see a purpose for it when other books/material work much better. My review of what I would recommend instead: Liberty Defined, by Ron Paul Outro Music: A New Beginning, by Bensound (www.Bensound.com)...
This was over 300 pages of “This is dumb because I feel it is”. I was hoping for something better. Outro Music: A New Beginning, by Bensound (www.Bensound.com) This video is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
This was the first libertarian book I read. I’d say it serves as the best introduction to libertarianism. https://mises.org/library/liberty-defined-2 Outro Music: A New Beginning, by Bensound (www.Bensound.com) This video is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
A book that can be best described as ‘Thought Provoking’. https://mises.org/library/case-discrimination Outro Music: A New Beginning, by Bensound (www.Bensound.com) This video is also available on YouTube, BitChute, DTube, and PewTube.
I’ve read lots of Objectivism recently, and this book is very comprehensive and accurate in describing both Ayn Rand and Objectivism. I highly recommend. If you’re an Objectivist, read this. If you just want to understand Rand and Objectivism in...
I’ve started reading Thomas Sowell’s books, and he writes some really great stuff. This one is rather short (140 pages + 20 note pages). It’s a rather simple point he’s making, but his explanations, references, and sources, are incredibly comprehensive....
A brief summary of my thoughts on ‘Fire & Fury: Inside The Trump White House’ by Michael Wolff. A great full review of Fire & Fury: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36VrAqkt_zQ Outro Music: A New Beginning, by Bensound (www.Bensound.com) This review is available on YouTube, BitChute,...
I’m starting a series of reviews with the goal of giving overviews of books in as short a time as possible. Let me know if you think this is TOO short. Buy the book at https://www.amazon.com/Ominous-Parallels-End-Freedom-America/dp/0452011175/ Outro Music: A New...
