Review of 'Basic Laws of Human Stupidity' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Quick impressions: A short essay that got turned into a book. From what the text says, this work has been around for a while, since at least 1988, but it is only now making it to the U.S. Anyhow, an OK read where the author presents his five laws and explains them. It can be a bit depressing once you realize there is no escaping the stupid.
