Historia
Are leaders born or made? Where does ambition come from? How does adversity affect the growth of leadership? Does the man make the times or do the times make the man? In Leadership, Goodwin draws upon four of the presidents she has studied most closely - Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon B. Johnson (in civil rights) - to show how they first recognized leadership qualities within themselves, and were recognized by others as leaders.

Fawning propaganda
Revisado: 03-10-25
The biographical parts were interesting, but I could do without the fawning hero-worship functioning as Pulitzer prize-winning, progressive propaganda so effusive it would make Chairman Mao blush.

Historia
Principles of Economics is a university-level textbook in economics that offers a clear and concise exploration of the most important economic concepts. This book is unapologetically Austrian in its approach. It tackles major economic concepts and topics independently, but in a logical sequence aimed at delivering the listener an understanding of economics at an individual and societal level, and the widespread implications of economics as a topic.

Starting something? Read this.
Revisado: 07-22-24
Starting something? Read this. It will take you all of an hour or two. Then go back and read it again and do the exercises he suggests. This book is @philmjonesuk follow up to his excellent book Exactly What to Say, which I read four times in 2 days because it was that good (and also that short). This book is especially applicable to entrepreneurs but also works for anyone who is starting anything, whether it's a book, career, family, college, or anything else. #exactlywheretostart

Didn't like it at the beginning, loved it by the end
Revisado: 02-29-24
When the book started, I wasn't enjoying it. I didn't like the context, and I felt like there was no way that there could be any redeeming value in it. but once I hit about halfway, I started to enjoy it more and find more value in it. by the end I had fallen in love with it.

Practical ideas to improve education
Revisado: 07-19-23
Constructive, workable, practical ideas for dramatically improving the education of our children. There are only two things in our way, the will to make it happen, and a combination of centralized government bureaucracy and special interests that make so much money off of our kids that they won't give up without a fight.

Historia
Now, most people have heard of ADHD and know someone who may have it. But lost in the discussion of both childhood and adult diagnosis of ADHD is the potential upside: Many hugely successful entrepreneurs and highly creative people attribute their achievements to ADHD. Also unknown to most are the recent research developments, including innovations that give a clearer understanding of the ADHD brain in action.

Historia
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

I didn't want to read this but I'm glad I did.
Revisado: 06-14-23
I resisted reading this book for years. it was too popular, and from what I had seen of David I didn't think he was my type of guy. but I finally gave in and read it because I felt like if it's that popular there must be something to it. I'm glad I read it because David is absolutely my type of guy. although I haven't been through anything like what he's been through, I have felt a small piece of what he's felt and been through a tiny bit of what he's been through and that allowed me to relate and see that if he can do what he's done then maybe I can do more than what I'm doing.

Historia
In The China Study, T. Colin Campbell revolutionized the way we think about our food with the evidence that a whole food, plant-based diet is the healthiest way to eat. Now, in Whole, he explains the science behind that evidence, the ways our current scientific paradigm ignores the fascinating complexity of the human body, and why, if we have such overwhelming evidence that everything we think we know about nutrition is wrong, our eating habits haven’t changed.

Awesome book to understand good nutrition

This book gave an awesome research-based overview of what comprises good nutrition, and historical context for understanding misguided U.S. health policy.
