Why read it?

1 author picked Knowledge And Decisions as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Thomas Sowell is underrated. How is a world-renowned thinker and commentator still underestimated? Many people think of Sowell as little more than a cultural commentator or an ideologue.
