Tell me about the last two outstanding non-fiction books you've read!
(Slight preference for technical/IT-y/other work related books, but anything goes)
I started this because over on Twitter, people started recommending me books for my new, empty shelves, for reference, in case you want to see other answers: https://twitter.com/rixxtr/status/1403818678190325764
@rixx Thinking Fast and Slow, The Second Law (a little outdated and too technical but still gold)
@biomedmax I found Thinking Fast and Slow very obnoxious, and the thorough debunking during the replication crisis really didn't do it any favours.
@biomedmax I highly recommend that you read up on the replication crisis, and how it relates to most studies done and accepted beforehand. This post on Kahneman's book is just one of the many resources out there.
