The only real way for people to learn better is to go out and read Language in Thought and Action or Rational Choice in an Uncertain World.

Added to my list!

Do you have any more reading suggestions for people who have read the sequences? I read a few books recommended in the book recommendation open threads (or on irc), but was sometimes disappointed ("Thinking in Systems" is not very rigorous and formal, Nassim Taleb's "Fooled by Randomness" takes too much liberty interpreting various concepts, and I'm not a fan of books that start by telling me "don't worry I won't hurt your little brain with equations").
