This site contains notes that I've made from some of the books I've read in recent times.
The aim is to summarise the parts of the book that most attracted my attention, perhaps reworded or reorganised, rather than act as a formal summary. Of course they also don't necessarily reflect whether or not I agree or disagree with the sentiments that exist within then. It goes without saying that it's not a great idea to to only read books with which you already 100% agree with.
So far there are notes on the following books:
- Minority Rule
