A few books I recommend, with short notes on why they matter to me:
-
Capital in the Twenty-First Century — Thomas Piketty
Great for understanding how wealth and income inequality evolve over time, why capital tends to concentrate, and how this shapes modern democracies. -
The Hard Thing About Hard Things — Ben Horowitz
Great for understanding how to navigate brutal, unsolvable problems when you’re the one in charge. Brutally honest about layoffs, pivots, crises, and the mental cost of being a founder. A must read.
