Contrarian books
A reader tells me that she found my book, How Einstein Ruined Physics, in a bookstore next to the new book, How The Beatles Destroyed Rock 'n' Roll: An Alternative History of American Popular Music. That's funny. I am going to contact the publisher and suggest a series of books. I will propose How Babe Ruth Ruined Baseball, How Mark Twain Ruined Literature, How Pablo Picasso Ruined Art, How Margaret Mead Ruined Anthropology, and How Steve Jobs Ruined Computers.

Begin with the Steve Jobs book while it's still topical. Make it really sensational, sell millions of copies and people will flock to buy your Einstein book too.
