Vaclav Smil and Bryan Caplan are two of my most favorite authors, both university professors. How come we read and understand them clearly so differently?
Btw, if you read these guys, you “touch a university”, don’t you?
ah yes, good point. I guess I got carried away with giving titles that "changed my views" rather than giving evidence to the point that academia needs to go.
(both, in my defense, as far as I can interpret them, are pretty anti/lukewarm on much of what's wrong with their institutions)
