Extra Credit
Extra Book: One of the two extra credit opportunities for this class is, for half the credit you would get for the other book papers, to read and write about one of these five books as you wrote about the other books, focusing on what you learned:
The Age of Em: Work, Love and Life When Robots Rule the Earth by Robin Hanson (Related blog posts laid out here.)
The Talent Code: Greatness Isn't Born. It's Grown. Here's How. by Daniel Coyle
The Culture Code: The Secrets of Highly Successful Groups by Daniel Coyle
Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don’t Know by Adam Grant
Moral Politics by George Lakoff
The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt
(You can only get extra credit for one. You need to send in the paper on the extra book before the last class to get credit.)
The Daily Stoic: Subscribe to the daily email from The Daily Stoic at https://dailystoic.com/ and get extra credit for up to three 200-word reactions about a daily message that was especially meaningful to you, explaining why it is was meaningful to you.
