What's on your reading list right now, Ryan?

Just wrapping up The Sovereign Individual on the nonfiction side, want to revisit Snow Crash before the month is out. A smattering of technical reference books always in queue.

Physical copies, no e-books.

It’s a good read

Gonna read Jordan Peterson's book on 12 rules for life next.

Twetch ·

12 rules for life is fantastic. Can also recommend Maps of Meaning. Exploration of the pre-scientific-method understanding of life and the world around us. I’m off Twitter and Facebook now. Listen to Ryan folks, it makes life better.

Twetch ·

"Maps of Meaning" is the one I plan to read after 12 rules!

Twetch ·

Nice one :) That’s the order I read them in too. I am not a religious practitioner but that book helped me understand the concept of God - I found it very moving.

Been reading the rational male, preventive medicine. An absolute eye opener that I can recommend to any man who wants to understand women better. If not for yourself, then for the sake of your sons.

Can you publish a recommended list of books you have read already? I prefer referencing those list instead of marketed books.

I am just commenting here, in order to get all the notifications. Don't mind me. Adding to the reading list.

The Way of Mastery - Part One: The Way of the Heart
is a personal favorite of mine
Dr Lawrence Wilson summarised the main principles for free here: https://www.drlwilson.com/Articles/REAL.SELF.htm

Is anyone building a better goodreads already?

Twetch ·

Finished listening to "12 rules" twice. Great book. I plan to apply these rules in my life.

Twetch ·

I'm going to listen to "Crime and Punishment" next. I'm starting to understand the role of Christianity in the history of western civilization.

Twetch ·

If that is your aim, Ryan, "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism" by Max Weber is highly recommended reading :)

Twetch ·

Thanks gato I'm adding that to my list. I'm very interested to learn more about protestantism.

Twetch ·

Thanks gato. Bought it. Current books are:

1. Maps of Meaning
2. Crime and Punishment
3. Protestant Ethic

Best opportunity is reading :)
