A classic ― Simon Kuper, Financial Times

Brilliant. ― James O'Brien, author of How to be Right

A masterly book ― Nassim Nicholas Taleb

This is a very funny book, but Carlo ' underlying insight really matters: there's a lot of stupidity about, including in society's highest circles – and the stupid wield a surprising amount of power, because the rest of us can never guess what idiotic thing they'll do next. We need to get wise to stupidity, and  witty rules are a great place to start. ― Oliver 

 subtle tongue-in-cheek  made this book an underground classic in Italy. Today, under current worldwide political trends, it reads more like black . Keep in mind: reliable statistical data shows that 98% of the people seriously believe that they are far less stupid than the average. ― Carlo  author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics

A classic ― Simon Kuper, Financial Times

Brilliant. ― James O'Brien, author of How to be Right

A masterly book ― Nassim Nicholas Taleb

This is a very funny book, but Carlo Cipolla's underlying insight really matters: there's a lot of stupidity about, including in society's highest circles – and the stupid wield a surprising amount of power, because the rest of us can never guess what idiotic thing they'll do next. We need to get wise to stupidity, and Cipolla's drily witty rules are a great place to start. ― Oliver Burkeman

Cipolla’s subtle tongue-in-cheek humour made this book an underground classic in Italy. Today, under current worldwide political trends, it reads more like black humour. Keep in mind: reliable statistical data shows that 98% of the people seriously believe that they are far less stupid than the average. ― Carlo Rovelli, author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics
