It's worth it imo. Very well written with absolutely zero commentary. Just lays out the facts, and does a bit of profiling of Eric and Dylan going back to their childhood, which I find fascinating.

Commaner Keen - it has nazi symbols in it.

Note: This was to bring attention to ID Softwares upcoming game Wolfenstein 3D which was about to change the world. Read the book "Masters of Doom" - the most amazing story you will ever come across.

He makes note that some studies indicate that at the similar income levels there is a narrowing of the gap. But the gap is well documented. There is a huge academic literature on the gaps in cognitive test results, practically all of it converging on the fact that African American mean scores on cognitive tests fall below the white means by a tad more than one white standard deviation. There is in fact so much data on this now that we have meta-studies — studies of the studies: the one best-known to me is the meta-study by Roth et al. in 2001, which covered 39 studies involving nearly six million test-takers. That one standard deviation on cognitive testing has been so persistent across so many decades, an academic sociologist, calls it "the fundamental constant of American sociology" — it's like the speed of light in physics .

[2001](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_Space_Odyssey_(novel) and the related books. Probably others too, and then there are novelizations of a surprisingly large amount of movies. For example, I remember seeing a novelization of Jurassic Park, even though it was already based on a book.

what makes you think it was fucked up before colonialism?

check out Thornton's Africa and Africans in the Making of the Atlantic World: http://www.amazon.com/Africans-Atlantic-1400-1800-Studies-Comparative/dp/0521627249

it does a good job of detailing western and central Africa during the slave trade but before colonialism. one of the main takeaways is Africans exhibited huge influence and power over their relationships with Europeans, which is in contrast to how most people assume they were completely dominated by Europeans from the get go.

And Michael Psellos', Anna Komnene's, Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos', and many many other writer's works from the always forgotten second chapter of the Roman Empire that provided us with the foundations of the renaissance and preserved the writings and legacy of ancient Greece that lasted for more than a thousand years after the western empire fell.

Here's a good example of one of their [works] (https://www.amazon.com/Constantine-Porphyrogenitus-Administrando-Historiae-Byzantinae/dp/0884020215/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468979078&sr=8-1&keywords=constantine+vii).

you can fix that, to a degree, by doing breathing exercises in between bench sets. don't be a bitch.

franco columbu describes, in detail, how to do it in that book. dl a pdf or something.

I mean, if you want to buy a history book. There's a youtube video that goes over the Karl Marx section, though. Or you can just use google.

If you want a bigger dose of rage-inducing stories of Chinese business practices, read Poorly Made in China.

You are massively overestimating the CIA's competence.

OP is an idiot, the book was edited by Martin Bauer.

Found it!

When I saw it, I couldn't help but feel I had seen it somewhere before.

edit: apparently there's a children's book called The Battle At Toad Hill

You talk some good bullshit. Usually I just pull a paragraph from this book and change the subject around, but that's some quality impromptu bullshit.

> and at Okinawa a bunch of people just committed suicide because...well, Japanese honor and shit.

It's a little bit more complicated than that. Contemporary Japanese propaganda of the US Marine Corps said that to enter the Marine Corps you had to kill your parents. This was meant to dehumanize marines as heartless beasts that were okay to kill, but once marine units moved in on villages it was a very widespread fear that you and your family would be raped to death. So people chose to kill themselves and their kids rather than have them suffer.

There was an extent to which honor in Japanese culture played into it (better to kill yourself than to be captured, and likewise better to kill yourself than to be raped to death) but from what I've read (can't remember any books' exact names but one was entitled "Kamikaze!" by a kamikaze pilot who didn't get to go on his mission before the war ended, published c. ~1955) the infamous suicide cliffs on Okinawa were out of fear, not out of honor.

Edit: uhhh I think this was one of the books
