All the chess books are good...for learning chess. The rest are a combination of - meh - haven't read yet - this book sucks - and books from my wife that need to get off my fucking bookshelf.

What should I add to my bookshelf next? I'm an obsessive compulsive learner and am pretty determined to be wise and, ideally, in a way that is innovative.

Not the right person to ask
But I would say Plato (Republic is pretty short).
I only read greek philosophers in high school1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Apparently there is 10 books in Republic so it isnt short. I dont remember if we had to read just a few of them or if I read them all...

I’d recommend Books I, II (on justice), III, IV (on education and creating a good city through good people), VI (philosopher king), VII (allegory of the cave). I didn’t like V (sharing wives and children) or VIII through X (pros and cons of forms of government) as much
