Title: Range - Why Generalists triumph in a specialized world Author: David Epstein I started with the synopsis of the book, and thought that this would be something different to the world of specialized individuals. Have you ever heard that if you want to become really good at something (novice/semi-/professional) you need to put in … Continue reading 025-2019 Range

024-2019 Rich Dad, Poor Dad
Title: Rich Dad, Poor Dad Author: Robert T. Kiyosaki I bought the pocket-sized booklet of this top-seller, and am really satisfied with what I got from this read. The approach followed by the author to tell this story is quite interesting. And it all starts with the entertaining title of the book. Before I bought … Continue reading 024-2019 Rich Dad, Poor Dad
023-2019 Think and Grow Rich
Title: Think and Grow Rich Author: Napoleon Hill I did finish this one some time ago but neglected to write a review before the year had ended. That's why (even though we're already going strong into 2020) I still title it among my 2019 reads. Somewhere I once read that this was the book that … Continue reading 023-2019 Think and Grow Rich
022-2019 Think
Title: Think - Why You Should Question Everything Author: Guy P. Harrison Just before I packed for my trip to Europe I bought a few book. This was one of them.

020-2019 How to Win Friends and Influence People
Title: How to Win Friends and Influence People Author: Dale Carnegie One recommendation I heard from the grand mister Warren Buffet was that he took a public speaking course somewhere called the Carnegie Institute (correct me if the name is not right). On another video I watched it recommended nine books that every individual should … Continue reading 020-2019 How to Win Friends and Influence People
019-2019 Circe
Title: Circe Author: Madeline Miller This is currently the third book review I am making on Greek Mythology. If you're thinking that a pattern is developing, let me assure you, I have developed a deep interest in Greek stories. They are truly fascinating, and the next one is on Alexander the Great and maybe even … Continue reading 019-2019 Circe
018-2019 Song of Achilles
Title: Song of Achilles Author: Madeline Miller The first book I recommended that you should read was 'Mythos', and I stick to that, as long as you wish to get a bigger picture on a large part of Greek Mythology. However, if you only wish to read a true classic of one piece of Greek … Continue reading 018-2019 Song of Achilles
017-2019 The Richest Man in Babylon
Title: The Richest Man in Babylon Author: George S. Clason Do you remember when you received some money from parent, or grand-parent, and then didn't know what to do with it? Do you maybe even remember your parent telling you that when you start receiving a salary you should put away 10% as savings? I … Continue reading 017-2019 The Richest Man in Babylon
016-2019 A little history of the World
Title: A Little History of the World Author: E. H. Gombrich I know I haven't issued any new reviews in since late September, and for that I humbly apologize. But that doesn't mean I stopped my active reading list. On the contrary, it's been going on as before, and I have some exciting new reviews, … Continue reading 016-2019 A little history of the World
