I'd recommend reading the academic books that CFAR lists, that will get you further than reading more blog posts, or more popular books.

That's missing the point of this question, which is "if I read all the academic books on CFAR's list, are there blog posts that contain things I will not have seen in the books?"

to be fair, iawain1 never mention the academic books list.

You are correct; thanks for pointing that out. I had forgotten that they had two separate lists.

That's not how I read it. It seems to me that it was only talking about the popular books, not the academic books.
