Having recently received a couple of Amazon gift certificates, I'm looking for recommendations of 'rationalist' books to buy. (It's a little difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff.)

I'm looking mainly for non-fiction that would be helpful on the road to rationality. Anything from general introductory type texts to more technical or math oriented stuff. I found this OB thread which has some recommendations, but I thought that:

  • this could be a useful thread for beginners (and others) here
  • the ability to vote on suggestions would provide extra information

So, if you have a book to recommend, please leave a comment. If you have more than one to recommend, make them separate comments so that each can be voted up/down individually.

[Hm, the unordered list doesn't seem to be working for me. Any hints?]

Beginning of unordered list test

  • Item one
  • Item two

End of unordered list test

Source code:

Beginning of unordered list test
* Item one
* Item two
End of unordered list test

My guess: you're missing a blank line before your list.

That sorted it, thanks.
