A review by professorpi
The WEIRDest People in the World: How the West Became Psychologically Peculiar and Particularly Prosperous by Joseph Henrich

5.0

A lot of stuff in here. My main takeaways were as follows:

1. Ingroup mentality. I hadnt considered that (too weird myself) and it is definitely something to contemplate. 
2. Developing distinguishing characteristics as a networking tactic and impersonal relationships as a whole.
3. Connects interestingly to some of david graeber’s concepts about debt. 
4. Protestants are more hardworking but also more likely to commit suicide. I genuinely think there is a lot there.
