This post would be of much higher utility if some more time was spent working on the flow of the writing. I'm currently introducing some friends to rationality, but I won't be using this post as it feels clunky and not that engaging, although I think that the bits based on 'the lens that sees its flaws' (diagrams of reality, lens, beliefs and optical illusions sections) are great introductions to the subject.
Perhaps try and write more conversationally, as big parts just feel like quite formal lists of statements. Also, maybe include what's at the top of this post at the top.
Thanks for the feedback.
I wrote this to help me better understand the material when I first came across it. It was sitting doing nothing on my computer for a year and so I decided to just post it. I hope it will be useful as an article for a few beginners.
I agree I should try and make the work more engaging and I have recently read Made to Stick, On Writing Well and Elements of Style to give me ideas on how to improve my writing. I still find it very difficult and time consuming.
