andrewduckerI've been reading Harry Potter and the Methods Of Rationality.
It takes as it's starting point - what if Harry's parents had been rationalist scientists, and works forward from there. Which is both funny and eye-opening. It's a fantastic critique of the series, combined with an introduction to lots of ideas about the way people think.
I don't usually read fanfic, but this was just fantastic.
Many, many thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
