# Intuition Pump and other tools for thinking by Daniel Dennett # Books edited by John Brockman - 1) This Explains Everything, 2) This Idea is Brilliant, 3) This Will Make You Smarter, 4) Thinking # Personal MBA by Josh Kaufman Also second the recommendation of other books based on Charlie Munger's wisdom and farnam street's reading list.
