If you’re looking for some sci fi, I highly recommend The Expanse series.
Thinking Fast and Slow is probably one of the greatest books I’ve ever read. It’s on human decision making and psychology.
If you want to read some history, I highly recommend these two:
The Spy and the Traitor: The Greatest Espionage Story of the Cold War by Ben Macintyre
The Splended and the Vile by Erik Larson
Both of these books are page turners. I couldn’t put them down.
If you’re software person, I highly recommend Designing Data Intensive Applications by Martin Kleppmann. It’s one of the most insightful and accessible technical books I’ve read, ever.
- defaultprimate 5y agoThinking Fast and Slow is also not scientific at all, and riddled with errors and a complete lack of statistical validation. https://retractionwatch.com/2017/02/20/placed-much-faith-underpowered-studies-nobel-prize-winner-admits-mistakes/ https://retractionwatch.com/2017/02/20/placed-much-faith-und...
