25 reviews for On Bullshit

  1. Pranab Mehrishi

    A classic for a reason! This book is a must-read. It gives a new perspective of things.

  2. Abhay Raj Singh Chauhan

    An excellent, concise analysis. It makes you think about your daily interactions in a new way. I liked it a lot!

  3. Prem Pushkar

    Frankfurt’s writing is clear and engaging. This book offers a valuable framework for understanding the way people speak.

  4. Ramanan Kartikh

    Interesting concept. It lacked real-world applications. More theoretical than practical.

  5. Sthita Prangya Das

    Too short, nothing new. It restates the obvious with a few more words. Disappointing read.

  6. Krithik Rohan Sankaran Yuvaraj

    It explains the true nature of bullshit. This book offers something to learn.

  7. Pankaj Yadav

    I found it repetitive. Good concept, but not well written. Needs a better structure and clarity.

  8. Simran Koli

    An enjoyable read that makes you think. I liked his approach, but it felt too short and less practical.

  9. Shreshth Dhuria

    A bit academic for my taste, but still an interesting exploration of a common phenomenon. I enjoyed the intellectual challenge, but it’s not for everyone.

  10. K R Ajaykumar

    A well-argued exploration of a pervasive issue. It’s a short book, but it leaves a lasting impression. I enjoyed reading.

  11. M Anil Naik

    Short and sweet. I found it engaging. It is a fun read to critically think about communications.

  12. Raunaq Mehrotra

    A simple, yet insightful, explanation of a phenomenon we all experience. Worth the short time it takes to read.

  13. Prerna Gupta

    I was expecting more depth. It is simple, but it is not very helpful. Just the author’s opinion.

  14. Tanisha Kumari

    Eye-opening! This book made me rethink how I interpret information and communication. Highly recommend!

  15. Vishesh Mishra

    Brilliant and concise! Frankfurt perfectly captures the essence of bullshit in modern society. A must-read for anyone who values truth and clarity.

  16. Aryan Singh Chauhan

    It is a book I would reread again in the future. This is really an amazing and eye opening book.

  17. Nishita Chowdhury

    A good book to understand the current situation. I will recommend everyone to read this book.

  18. Vipasha Sharma

    While interesting, the book felt like a stretched-out essay. Not bad, but not great either.

  19. Anonymous

    It is a waste of time! It is a boring book and I found nothing interesting in the book.

  20. Divyangi Mishra

    Interesting premise, but the writing style felt a bit dense. I appreciated the philosophical approach, but it wasn’t exactly a page-turner. Still, it offered some food for thought.

  21. Abhinav Singh

    A timely and relevant analysis of a growing problem. Frankfurt’s insights are sharp and witty.

  22. Rohit

    A quick, thought-provoking read. Frankfurt’s distinction between lying and bullshit is insightful, though the concept felt a bit over-analyzed at times. Still, a valuable perspective.

  23. Ankit

    I appreciated the short length, but the ideas felt underdeveloped. Worth a read if you have an hour to spare.

  24. Prem Pushkar

    I appreciated the perspective but ultimately felt it was a bit repetitive. The core argument is strong, but it could’ve been made more concisely.

  25. Annie Goswami

    A must-read! This is a really thought-provoking exploration of the concept of bullshit and its implications. I recommend it.
