The Breakdown of Nations by Leopold Kohr: A book arguing Kohl’s theory of smallness, that size is the most important factor in human systems. Kohr argues that the size of political systems (nation states) is the source of most of their problems, and that smaller is better. He argues that we should reject the “aggrandizement of states” and pursue “the breakdown of nations.” A fascinating read, and once I saw the issue with size I can’t unsee it. World Atlas of Coffee by James Hoffman: A fun book on the history of coffee around the world, the tree, the bean, the cup, everything. A good book for coffee lovers. James also has a great YouTube channel all about coffee.
