Announcement: Final Newsletter
The weekly newsletter is coming to an end but will remain available online.
It’s been two years since Applied Knowledge began. We’ve reviewed 105 books and briefly profiled 92 dissidents from across the world.
This upcoming week will be the publication’s final one.
It’s been wonderful to watch this newsletter grow, but my career is growing elsewhere. I’m split between covering the prediction market industry and pursuing other career opportunities.
It’s good news for my career, but something had to give, and this was it.
Books are always going to be a crucial part of my work. They remain the best sources of authoritative deep dives that contrast with the histrionic hot takes of social media.
Dissidents remain a crucial part of learning to think more clearly about politics. It’s instructive to see what people are fighting for abroad and what real tyranny looks like. Cultural war nonsense doesn’t stack up to the real fights being waged against actual dictators.
Thank you for supporting Applied Knowledge Book Reviews. It’s been fun to dive back into some of my favorite books with you.
