I hope that is not an indictment of ME reading a “Paltry” three of his books...I would presume having done that, I am in the upper five percent of nearly any demographic slice you would make!!!

Indictment? Of course not - more of an incitement to get you to take a trip to the library and see what else Sowell has written besides the three titles you mentioned. Those three are among his best, but there are numerous others which can be compared with them and some might even be better. When I first tumbled to how insightful Thomas Sowell was, I went to the library and got as many of his books as I could - and back then he hadn't written half as many as he now has to his credit.

Ah heck...I don’t need no stinkin’ INCITEMENT to read more of his work...

I just need the TIME! (currently reading ‘The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire’...)

My esteem for his intellect, commonsense and ability to convey ideas clearly is higher than nearly any other author I have had the opportunity to read in the last couple of years...I will be taking the suggestions.
