Plain logic and good sense condensed into a short book that easy enough for anyone to understand.
This should be given out free to all high school students!

This is an injection of sense in a world of nonsense! Thomas Sowell has done it again, making you think about things in a far clearer way than you might have previously. My wife bought this as a hard copy after the first few chapters.

Great book well worth a listen

As always, Sowell gives consise considered conclusions to the problems of the day using common sense and wisdom.
Love that his titles are being made available to listen too, I find it hard to find time to read outside of work so this allows me to enjoy his works on the job!

Glad to see all his books be made into audio versions!

Thomas is excellent at explaining complex issues in layman terms. A calm description of why society is in such a mess today in America and beyond.

The woke mob would do well to take notes from this book. Favouring theatrical radical ideology over reality is a disaster waiting to happen. Less alarmism and radical ideas and more common sense and logic, great book!
