My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This essay from The Basic Writings of Bertrand Russell: 1903-1959 is a brilliant humorous satire on some of the prevalent notions accepted and practised by intellectual minds like clergy, philosophers, scientists or eminent personalities whose views have a considerable influence upon common man.

A very light read, at app. 13,700 words, this essay will leave you with good food for thought.
