"The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity" by Carlo M. Cipolla (1922-2000)


 

Publisher: Doubleday
Copyright: 2011
ISBN: 9780385546478 (hardcover)

Professor Cipolla takes an economically based look at human behaviour and in particular at human stupidity. He provides the reader with an important book that allows them to detect neutralize the effect of stupidity 

He does this in both a hilarious and serious manner that will leave you better equipped confront political leaders, unreasonable colleagues, and in-laws.

This was a very interesting book to read that does manage to render some humans odd behaviour and make it more understandable.

Well worth the read, both for the humourous side as well as the insight.
