A very interesting look at the world through a famous Indian journalist of the past. These kinds of books are very fascinating. You become the author for a few days.

An excellent zoomed-out view that organizes all things marketing. What fundamentally is marketing? What are you doing when you're marketing something? How do all the 13,245 marketing tips you hear on a daily basis fit into marketing?

The book explains the broad structure, so now anything you read regarding marketing will build upon it. It also gives you a step-by-step approach to follow and apply everything you learned.

A technical book long on bold promises, short on advice.

One of the most influential books I've ever read. Changed my whole productivity philosophy.

A great overview of all things productivity but lacks depth. It doesn't get deep into any of the subtopics, but covers a wide range of them and that's the point. But whenever things started getting interesting, the topic changed which was pretty disappointing. Anyway, this will be my recommendation as an introduction to productivity. Next in line will be Cal Newport's legendary Deep Work obviously.

Excellent sequel to Newport's Deep Work. Implemented a lot of strategies and tactics from this one. And they actually had a massive impact on my productivity.

A very funny introduction to conceptual statistics. Made me chuckle and smile so many times, while managing to blow my mind at the same time. It felt like a software upgrade for my brain; I notice nuances of all kinds of things automatically now.
