You should check out the books by John R. Lott.  Those were really good.

And "Unintended Consequences" by John Ross.  It's a long book, but riviting.

Good thing that the reviewers didn't use the term "woke nonesense" or you
wouldn't have read those reviews at all.

This why Amazon had the opportunity, and threw it away, to be a good place to
find good books.
