Its the only book of his I've read. I was highly recommended to me many years ago and its very interesting and I would argue it is helpful. Viewing the right and left as enemies is the wrong take. 

Yeah, I should read that.  I haven't read any of Jonathan Haidt's books but they seem like worthwhile reads.

> You'd be surprised how little the average person thinks about social dynamics and incentive structures.

I'm not. I've thought about this for most of my adult life and had many conversations with people all over the political spectrum. Not much surprises me any more.

My theory on why people don't think about incentives or high level society issues is simple. Most people really mostly think of themselves and their immediate needs. I don't just mean people are selfish, though we are. I just mean that the average person just isn't wired to think that way.

I think "The Righteous Mind" is a helpful book on this topic.
