The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity

It may seem that this book is a joke. But no: this is in no way a product of cynicism or a manifestation of capitulation. Moreover, it is a constructive attempt to identify, understand, and perhaps neutralize one of the most powerful and darkest forces that interfere with the happiness and well-being of mankind, stupidity.
Why does Cipolla consider fools more dangerous than the mafia, even though they operate without statutes and a leader? What are fools by nature, character and behavior? This is the topic of the book, supported by observations, experiments and graphs.
And even if you now accept this book with skepticism, by the end of reading you will change your attitude and perhaps agree with all the laws of human stupidity. Or at least remember them forever.
