Like the subtitle says: what rationality is, the habits of mind that exhibit (and inhibit) rationality, and why wide-spread rationality is desirable.

Review of 'Rationality' on 'Goodreads'

An important topic. It's better to look up some of the jargon before jumping into this book. Reads half like a textbook. On one hand explains already commonly understood concepts, on the other delves into advanced ones. Overall valuable for further studying of the topics and I will likely read it again.
