Someone pulled together various book recommendations I have made over the years.

I especially like the meta-analysis to see where I was the sole recommender (for Alison Gopnik, Kurzweil and Wolfram’s works) and where I had company from friends and fellow geeks:

1) GEB with Kevin Kelly, Naval Ravikant, and Demis Hassabis
2) Abundance with Bill Gates and Richard Branson
3) RPO with Astro Teller and Brian Armstrong
4) Out of Control, Ev Williams
5) Fabric of Reality, Chris Anderson and Naval

One response to “Most Recommended Geek Books”
