  • The Beginning of Infinity: Explanations That Transform the World by David Deutsch. It makes a bold claim that we will always be at the beginning of the infinite progress that lies ahead. History has proven again and again that whenever people said all progress has been made, so much more progress unfolds.
  • The Innovator’s Solution by Clayton M. Christensen and Michael E. Raynor. This is a sequel to the popular Innovator’s Dilemma book. I like the sequel much better because it tries to give solutions to the dilemma. The book packs tons of counter intuitive insights. Highly recommended.
  • The Big Picture by Sean Carrol. The best cosmology book I have read in a long while.
  • First Break All the Rules by Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman. If you are a first time manager, I highly recommend reading this book.
  • Deep Work by Cal Newport. This book changed my working habits and life. I was constantly distracted before, and now I am able to focus a ton.
  • Feeling Good by David Burns. This classic is again a must read. Even if you are not depressed, it will help build your mental immunity against future depression.
  • Our Mathematical Universe by Max Tegmark. A very interesting book that makes the claim that our universe is actually just mathematics. No physical reality exists because physics and mathematics are interchangeable.
