Socialism . . . Seriously: A Brief Guide to Human Liberation by Danny Katch
5.0
Fun, light, breezy and clear. There's much to enjoy in this book. It gets across the fundamentals and history of socialism across in a way that is just a joy to read. Anyone can read this book and understand what socialism is, and why people like it.
Part of this is the simplicity at Socialism's core, but a lot comes down to the humour and simple prose Danny Katch writes. So digestible, covers all the important bits, and helps point you in the right direction. I consider this a gold standard for a political primer. Want to learn about socialism, consider yourself socialist but want to double-check how best to explain it to friends, this book should be your first stop.
