Dr. Sowell's writing style is excellent. He understands that the purpose of writing argumentatively is to convince people of something. And in order to convince people of something, they have to understand what's being said. Hence, parsimony. It's impossible to actually read Sowell and not understand what he's getting at. Unlike
some people, who seem to deliberately complicate what they say, making it impossible to understand and therefore argue with them, whereupon they claim victory because there has been no rebuttal.
