so seeing these clips finally pushed me over the edge to start reading them

2020-03-12 03:19:41 UTC

So I read this book called Babylonian life and history written by EA Budge. It is about surprisingly ancient Babylonia and it’s history. The book starts by covering the geography and city states of the region then moves on to an overview of its history, the city of Babylonian itself and then talks about the laws, customs, society and writing system of Babylon. The it must be stressed that this is an overview of Babylonian and not an intense history of it. It is quite interesting learning about Babylonia because not much is talked about it. Babylon the city was founded almost 4000 years ago and was still occupied as a city until about a thousand years ago. It is a very old city and a very ancient region with parts that have been occupied on and off since the Stone Age and even when xenopon march an army through one of the cities he called it ancient it was old for him and was viewed by him probably the same way we view the Greeks and Romans today. It is weird thinking about it because the city seen thousands of people born, live, fall in love, make friends and enemies, traded, worshipped learn and die there but we don’t know a lot about them and they are often forgotten and we don’t know a lot about them we know a lot about the Greeks and Romans but don’t know as much about the Babylonians.

But in short the book is an 8/10
Pros: good for people that aren’t familiar with Babylon or are taking a class on it, it is good as an overview
Cons: I would not recommend this book to people that are familiar to Babylon or need a more in depth book on the subject

I heavily recommend it for people that want to learn more about it but don’t know much about.

Find that a funny joke given the context

2020-03-29 04:39:07 UTC  

I don't know the full story behind that, but I'm willing to bet Mises was younger and less wise in regards to econ.

2020-03-29 04:56:31 UTC  

I couldn't care less about Mises personal or work life I only care about his ideas

About Mises's gov job I mean

2020-03-29 21:41:36 UTC  

To be clear, I'm not saying the market is the most important thing and I have some hard questions to face as a libertarian on many issues, but by understanding the economy you are not changing your political and philosophic outlook on life. It simply adds to your understanding of the world.

2020-03-29 21:41:56 UTC  

You can say from an economic perspective one thing and a political one anohter
