Perhaps one of the most important texts/essays written by the great sociologist Carlo M. Cipolla, but unknown to the general public. The distinction he makes to define "stupid" people is revealing. I believe that anyone who reads it will change the way they perceive the people around them and their behavior towards them. The title suggests a humorous or funny text, but it is anything but. It is a well-documented treatise on "stupidity" with a very serious approach by the author, which deserves the same serious approach from the reader. Highly recommended.

You will understand why those around you are stupid, but the most important thing is that you will also understand that you are too

Short, pleasant, and very interesting. It analyzes the categories of idiots with clarity and enjoyable taste.

The definition of ambiguity and inaccuracy! A catchy, easy-to-read and short title, scientific -fans (as long as the cat steps) to satisfy the arrogance of the average reader. So here is the publishing success.

It is a pleasant essay that keeps your interest since everything it mentions is based on logic and reality. It is quite good to know what kind of people to surround ourselves with and be able to recognize the idiots among them and avoid them.

We are surrounded by idiots. Self-evident? Most of the time. This book puts scientific foundations in evidence and categorizes the idiots that surround us. Clear, concise, readable, and enjoyable.
