Bullshit Jobs
*Bull Shit Jobs: A Theory* (2018-05-17)

That is the new and entertaining book by David Graeber , probably you already have heard of it.  Here is a brief summary .

The Utopia of Rules
What I’ve been reading (2015-06-24)

1. David Graeber, The Utopia of Rules: on Technology, Stupidity, and the Secret Joys of Bureaucracy .  Don’t judge Graeber by his mistakes or by how he responds (doesn’t respond) to criticism.  This one is still more interesting to read than most books.  In fact, most of us quite like bureaucracy.

Debt
The wit of the Irish? (2011-09-23)

That is from David Graeber’s Debt: The First 5,000 Years .

What I’ve been reading (2011-09-13)

3. David Graeber, Debt: The First 5,000 Years .  Do you seek an overly verbose, sometimes fascinating synthesis of economic anthropology, early 20th century credit theories of money, and the history of debt?  The book overinterprets early historical evidence and falls apart as it approaches contemporary times, still it has a vitality which many other tracts lack.  Here is a chat with the author .
