Garrick Andres | 1 comments I recommend adding any Hans Herman Hoppe book

Jared (jaredsgoodreads) | 4 comments That is quite the list! Very impressive compendium. I feel odd voting for anything when I've only read two of those books--and two of the most obvious ones. What's your preference, Victor? Would you prefer that only people who have read a certain percentage vote?

@Jared - I don't know if Goodreads has rules on how voting on Lists should be done. On the other hand, there are hundreds of such lists, with some having many tens of book titles. I doubt that people who voted on such lists have read all the titles. That leaves us with the only choice - everybody can vote based on his own considerations and rules of how the voting should be done.

@Garrick - It looks to me that Hans Herman Hoppe's books are dedicated to relatively short periods in humankind's history. Still, I have one his book in the List "Humankind History."

Molly Sharma (mollysharma) | 1 comments What about those who haven't read any of the books but are eager to learn about them? How would we give our suggestions?

@Molly - >"What about those who haven't read any of the books but are eager to learn about them? How would we give our suggestions?" - I see two options here. First, for each book on the List, read author's description of the book on Amazon, then read reviews on Goodreads. Second - Start reading books that gather the most significant score on the List.
