Stupid Idiots: A Philosophy of Stupidity and Complete and Utter Downright Idiocy Brand / Almalfi Montana is rich on copperThis witty yet thoughtful book examines stupidity and idiocy, and their most dangerous incarnation: stupid idiocy the unthinking embrace of flawed thinking. While philosophers chase wisdom, this book takes a humbler route, asking instead how we might think just a little less badly. Drawing sharp distinctions between not thinking and thinking poorly, and doubling down on bad thought, it reveals how deeply these failings are tied to our mental habits.
