Still reading, but have no time to complete. The book is too glorified of Bill Gates, which makes it even less realistic. Anyway, it is worth a short glance over the first few chapters... no idea what's the middle and the end is about.

A book that connect some dots between some rather obscure matters. Really strange book, but a book that you should take a look into.

I have been obsessed with thoughts of parallel universe and probabilistic nature. Strangely, Nassim writes in a while that ascertain what I thought, but in a much more concrete manner. The whole idea consolidated is far more compelling than that I know of.
A book you must read.

A very good book that rouses some forgotten ideas of Christmas. And Charles Dickens, always that elegant, write in a most pleasant array of vocabulary and flow of words that keeps me at awe at his works.
It is a book worthy of reading, and that takes very short while even you hold a dictionary ... (continue)

How to Win Friends & Influence People
Extremely interesting book. Old yet insightful. It has some universal attributes that can be applied, but note that it is still a western culture thingie, so not a copy&paste idea in the East.
Modesty and Flattering is kind of hard to get a clear cut.
