Book Overviews, Highlights, and Discussion
I absolutely love books and I love the insights and education they can provide. I love exploring all different kinds of non-fiction perspectives and views, and books allow insights and introspection that is simply unattainable from a news article or conversation.
Capitalism & Freedom
A fantastic book, please give it the attention it deserves by picking up a copy and diving in. Recommended reading for entrepreneurs, economists, and investors.
Keynes’ General Theory
A beast of a book and a beast of a video. This is such a great dive for entrepreneurs and economist’ alike. You’ll definitely become a Keynes acolyte after this one!
The Road to Serfdom
I slept on this one for far too long. Though some of the definitions have changed, it’s still a majorly relevant book. Professor Hayek deserves more recognition.
Ready. Fire. Aim.
Alex Hormuz turned me on to this one, though I don’t have a major desire to run a $100mm company, I did enjoy the insights and outlooks. The end is especially pertinent and prevalent to organizations of all sizes.
Doppelganger
Naomi is my favorite eco-feminist. Her insights in her book “The Shock Doctrine” is equally matched by Chomsky’s “Manufacturing Consent”
Doppelgänger provides a post-covid world analysis and details what’s important and what’s being packaged and sold in this “influencer” culture.
Trade Wars are Class Wars
How Rising Inequality Distorts the Global Economy and Threatens International Peace
Tariffs. Deficits. Trade wars. The headlines make it seem like countries are locked in battle—but Matthew Klein and Michael Pettis reveal the deeper truth in Trade Wars Are Class Wars. This isn’t a war between nations; it’s a war waged by the wealthy elite against the working and middle classes. Forget the idea that Trump’s tariffs—or any politician’s policies—can fix our economy. In Trade Wars Are Class Wars, Matthew Klein and Michael Pettis expose the truth: trade wars aren’t fought between countries; they’re fought between economic classes.
