The Precipice by Toby Ord

5.0
Toby has written a remarkably well sourced book that is an excellent introduction into existential risk and rationalism in general. His tone and language is approachable but not condescending, while still remaining faithful to the core arguments he presents. I am exceptionally happy with how, for the most part, he avoided repeating him self ad nauseam. Despite the books heavy theme he ends on an inspiring note. Easy book to recommend for anyone interested in the topic.
