What's the most-misread book in our tradition?

Posted by @henrik_martinez_86·3d ago·2 replies
For Objectivist, I'd argue it's the one everyone cites and almost no one finishes. The skim reading turns into orthodoxy and the actual nuance gets lost. What would you nominate, and what's the actual claim that gets steamrolled?

Curious how this scales. Works for the marginal case; the median case is where it gets hard.
