The Fundamental Laws of Human Stupidity

Since time immemorial, a powerful black force has hindered the growth of human well-being and happiness. It is more powerful than the Mafia or the Militia. It has catastrophic global effects and can be found anywhere. This is the immensely powerful force of human stupidity.

Carlo M. Cipolla, a notable professor of economic history, created a vital model that allows us to detect, understand, and neutralize this threat: The Fundamental Laws of Human Stupidity. Simultaneously hilarious and deadly serious, this book will prepare you for disconcerting political realities, irrational colleagues, or the unbridled misfortune of dining with the in-laws.
