Intellectuals and Society
Thomas Sowell is one of the brilliant minds who I found exclusively through my work with getdocued. He is a strong critic both of American liberalism (left wings) and conservatives. Sowell wrote many books about the question why intellectuals always have a huge crush on ideas like socialism, central planning and big government.
Sowell is one of the few thinkers (at least from a European perspective) who constantly defends ideas which are most of the time against our first intuitions. Great stuff!
