Oh, hey, if you request the PDF, they also send you an epub version! For those of us who prefer e-ink readers (Kindle or Kobo), that's nice (even if charts tend to not work as well there).
I reviewed the latter a couple of weeks back and really enjoyed it (noting that you'll have to ignore a few pages of BTC snark), and it definitely does not share Lewis's issue of essentially building up SBF (there's one scene, in fact, of Faux watching Lewis intro SBF at a conference that really doesn't make Lewis look good): #497462
Haven't read either, but I can say that I heard Lewis on a podcast discussing this book and it was stunning to me how little he actually understood about btc, enough that I question how credible his other books (some of which I enjoyed a great deal) actually are.
The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man by John Perkins
Such a great book that provides a front row seat into the actual operations and tactical execution of the strategy within the framework for how the global fiat game is played.
I finished a lesson observation & a post-lesson conference this Wednesday. Ofc I regarded it like any normal lesson, but the fact is that, I spent a lot of brainpower trying to make sure that everything would go according to plan. (Which it didn’t btw but that’s not the point.) My fatigue led me to read this book on Wednesday afternoon.
The title drew me in, I guess. I’m a sucker for alliteration. It’s one of the things I automatically notice as an English teacher. Occupational hazard. Anyway, Kerry Miller set out to create a website in which people could forward the notes they received from others around them. Seems like most sources of displeasure and contempt arose from eating other people’s food, not washing the dishes, throwing litter, among others.
Kinda petty stuff, I think. I think if push comes to shove, I would just address my issue with the ‘culprit’. Though a short book like this made for light and swift reading. I completed it this Thursday. The endorphin boost derived from finishing this book is reason enough for you to give it a shot.
This book is also educational in certain parts. Finally, I understand how an air-con is supposed to function. I also realise that the world regards Singapore as a law-enforcing society where we just arrest everyone.
"A Redtail's Dream" is a webcomic about a young man and his shapeshifting dog on an involuntary journey on the other side of the Bird's Path in the realm of dreams. They have to rescue their fellow Villagers before their souls pass on to Tuonela, the land of eternal sleep.
Suggest me which one to read first.
