Ignorance is never bliss and it can be positively disastrous in certain circumstances. It's more important to understand the universality of each process if we are to make sense of cultural/revolutionary conflicts.

I read only the "how we'll live on Mars" book in this series. Very enlightening and thought provoking. Not a long read but well worth the time.
