Propaganda

* Thinking fast and slow - how to think and make decision and how to consider bias. * Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth - specialisation is for insects. * Propaganda - 1928 book by the inventor of public relations and modern media. Know how they influence you. * The war of art - being a professional. Honesty I don't think this book was written by a human this book completely changed my life and any other person I for to read this book had a similar experience. I have more but I don't want to information overload anyone.

Fundamentally changed are so big words but these were pretty cool: - Douglas Hofstadter's GEB: An Eternal Golden Braid - Debt: The First 5,000 Years by David Graeber - Ursula K. LeGuin's The Word for World is Forest - Propaganda by Edward Bernays - Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed by Jared Diamond - Empires: The Logic of World Domination from Ancient Rome to the United States by Herfried Münkler - Smedley D. Butler's War is a Racket (more of an exposé) - In Praise of Idleness by Bertrand Russell (ditto) - Neuromancer by William Gibson

Different books for different ages: - Discourse on the Method [1], to become a healthy criticist of everything (perfect for your 15's-20's development) - Beyond Good and Evil [2], a definition of the 20th century craziness by the crazy genius Nietzsche (perfect for your 30's burnout) - The Praise of Folly [3], to realize that life is just a game (perfect for your 40's post-burnout rehab) - Propaganda [4], because you want to play the game too (perfect for your 50's meteoric rise to fame & success :).
