Maoism: A Global History
Julia LovellRuxandra Teslo 🧬@ReallyRadley @NewtypeApologia @petergodofsky I read Julia lovell’s Maoism which was quite good but was focused more on how it spread than the doctrine per se. Mao was very much a theorist

To the Lighthouse
Virginia WoolfRuxandra Teslo 🧬@cauchyfriend But I’d say virginia Woolf herself idealised ordinary life through Mrs Ramsay (a thinly veiled version of her mother). I’m not sure what she herself believed. In To the Lighthouse she’s probably best identified as the painter Lucy not as Mrs Ramsay

The Effect: An Introduction to Research Design and Causality
Nick Huntington-KleinRuxandra Teslo 🧬@vitaliikl @rmassonix @rlmcelreath is that ultimately what matters is really undesrtanding your problem and that complicated stats models are just a tool (and often unnecessary). Nick Huntington-Klein's The Effect is also good at hammering that point

The Idiot
Fyodor DostoyevskyRuxandra Teslo 🧬My favorite Dostoyevsky book was The Idiot. Should re-read it. This is such a powerful passage that kind of describes what’s going on with our intelligentsia today 🫤 https://t.co/eegmH2AE8g

The Books of Jacob
Olga TokarczukRuxandra Teslo 🧬Because ppl are talking abt books I’m gonna recommend the best book I’ve read this year (still 300 pages of it left to go): The Books of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk. It’s my type: rich in history, long & dense, a wide cast of vivid characters & well written prose https://t.co/EZYYUhNf8j
