Sapolsky is good, might have to read that book sooner or later:
Non-fiction: Hayek's The Road to Serfdom, Euthyphro (technically historical fiction maybe?; re-reading & re-reading it), Marx in the Anthropocene, I dropped like 5-6 books after reading a few pages because I didn't vibe.
Fiction: Notes from Underground, I wanna read Brothers Karamazov but it looks way too long.
I think you misplaced The Road to Serfdom.
Yeah, I'm eyeing it. It's actually, I had to read Popper for a Phil Sci course. And these academic reactionary types have this weird obsession with evolution. My major is Biology, and I find it interesting. They are probably considered adaptationist, and honestly it's completely different from the evolutionary biology I learned and the papers I read.
I feel that last part.
