  • Conscience of a Liberal, by Paul Krugman

    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 ranting about Republicans and advocating equality of outcome, and then the publishers slapped that title on it so it would sell. It’s false advertising. It’s marketed as a response to “Conscience of a Conservative” by Goldwater. Krugman references the book twice and Goldwater once, comprising three paragraphs of a 300 page book. The book contains no mention of any principles or justification for them. And thanks to the Contra Krugman podcast, I know not to trust anything Krugman says (especially when his sources are leftist interpretations of what he references, rather than the original source). He also, at the very end, defines “liberal” as one concerned with wealth inequality and describes how progressives are basically liberals that take action more.

    It’s not that you shouldn’t read the book because you would disagree with it. You shouldn’t read it because there’s no actual substance to the book. No opposing arguments, just “right-wingers are racist because their speeches include far right dog-whistles to racists”

    One of the worst books I’ve ever read. I know I sound biased. I gave Conscience of a Conservative a good review, and this one a bad review. I’m actually a fan of liberalism, but Paul Krugman should not have been the author of this book.

  • Intelligence Reframed, by Howard Gardner

    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 is great. As for the theory though…

  • Win Bigly, by Scott Adams

    Scott Adams is a fantastic writer and superbly explains the tactics of persuasion we saw during the election.

  • In Trump We Trust, by Ann Coulter

    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 It was overall a great book, though pretty outdated now.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 of what she thinks, she puts lots of time into research when writing (at least with this book).

    Note: It seems like she’s pretty anti-Trump now. I don’t think it nullifies the book, because the book was a discussion of tactics, not really whether or not he would follow-through on what he said.
