+{{a|writer|}}Self-described anarchist anthropologist who had a [[Bullshit jobs|very good idea]], wrote a short article in ''Strike!'' magazine about it that went viral and then turned it into a slightly disappointing book called {{br|Bullshit Jobs: A Theory}}.
+Graeber has written three much better books: {{Br|Debt: The First 5,000 Years}}, which is one of the best books about finance we have ever read, and {{br|The Utopia of Rules: On Technology, Stupidity and the Secret Joys of Bureaucracy}}, which isn’t quite as much fun as it sounds, but still makes some important points, and the posthumously published {{br|The Dawn of Everything}}, co-written with David Wengrow, which may go down as his masterwork, but we personally think wasn’t quite as good as {{br|Debt: The First 5,000 Years}}.
-Nonetheless, it’s selling like hotcakes, so fair enough and good on him. I mean, it’s selling a ton more than ''[[The Montenegro Sanction]]'', so who are we to criticise?
