Non-Fiction – Failures in Polymathy

Where Mathematics Comes From: How the Embodied Mind Brings Mathematics Into Being – George Lakoff & Rafael E. Núñez

Some books you just have to return to in order to fully grasp them. This one will need a ”round 3” from me.

20 year old me would have enjoyed this a lot more than me now.

This book felt like the first PhD literature review I ever gave a shit about.

Non-fiction that reads like fiction. Pretty enjoyable, actually.

This is an excellent book on counter-apologetics. It is, however, the last book on the subject I may ever read.

Here is a hot take: after reading this I feel like I understood Anthony Bourdain’s suicide.

If you hate Charles Koch you should steal a copy of ‘Believe in People’ and read it. It’ll just make you hate him more.

This is among one of the worst books I have ever read.

John McWhorter is a favorite of mine, so I am admittedly biased. But I enjoyed it.

Apparently this is a ‘Sports Book’. I am somehow not convinced.
