科技已经渗透到人与人之间的每一种互动,但2018年或许会被铭记为我们真正开始应对后果的一年。因此,当彭博社(Bloomberg)请数十位商界领袖推选他们今年觉得最值得读的一本书时,格雷格·卢加诺夫(Greg Lukianoff,教育权利基金会主席)和乔纳森·海特(Jonathan Haidt,著名社会心理学家)的《The Coddling of the American Mind》获得了最多的选票,或许也就不足为奇了。
瓦尔比派克眼镜公司(Warby Parker)的Neil Blumenthal、Loup Ventures公司的Gene Munster和KKR的Henry Kravis都推荐阅读本文。Blumenthal说:“作为一名首席执行官和一名家长,这本书让我反思自己的行为。”Kravis 说,这本书“很有意思,描述了年轻人是如何受到过度保护的。”
约翰卡瑞鲁(John caryrou)的《Bad Blood》也获得了一些推选,这本书深入探讨血液检测初创公司Theranos的兴衰。贝宝(PayPal)的Dan Schulman和安德森·霍洛维茨基金(Andreessen Horowitz)的Katie Haun都表示,这是他们2018年最喜欢的一本书。Haun曾是司法部的一名检察官(虽然不是Theranos的直接检察官),她说听到故事的另一面很有意思。她表示:“我没有参与此次调查,所以阅读有关该公司的一些书籍很有趣。”

The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure
This incredibly thought-provoking book describes the negative impact that social media and overparenting are having on today’s youth. It made me reflect on my own actions, as both a CEO and a parent, and what ways I’ve contributed to today’s “safetyism” culture. Its core message has stayed with me—and has led me to develop new ways to drive innovation and smart risk-taking at the office, while also helping me to encourage independence and resilience with my children at home.

Educated: A Memoir
Educated: A Memoir This year I have been particularly interested in books that highlight our humanity—what makes us strong and what makes us frail; what inspires us to act and what holds us back. Educated is a touching, intimate portrayal of the ties that bind and fray, and I think an important read for all, especially at this moment in history.

Stubborn Attachments: A Vision for a Society of Free, Prosperous, and Responsible Individuals
Stubborn Attachments: A Vision for a Society of Free, Prosperous, and Responsible Individuals I think one should mostly read old books. But given the criteria for a yearend list, I nominate Tyler’s latest work. Stubborn Attachments is an important, Hume-inspired, ambitious-but-short take on ethics and responsibility. Editor’s note: This book was published by Stripe Press, which is part of Stripe.

Refugee
Refugee I believe that the young adult genre, which can present great opportunities to share an interesting read with your child, is often overlooked. Refugee, by Alan Gratz, did not disappoint. The author weaves together three generations of refugees—a Jewish child in Nazi Germany, a Cuban refugee following the missile crisis, and a present-day Syrian refugee. The book humanizes the people we see in the news, makes their hardships very relatable, and sparks interesting dialogue for parents and their children. Reading alongside my 10-year-old, I certainly can confirm the book has done just that for my son and me.

Factfulness: Ten Reasons We’re Wrong About the World—and Why Things Are Better Than You Think

Factfulness: Ten Reasons We’re Wrong About the World—and Why Things Are Better Than You Think Turning on the news today, you would think the world is getting worse by the minute. Hans Rosling’s Factfulness offers a much more optimistic view about human progress, dispelling pervasive misconceptions with statistics and facts. For example: The number of people living in extreme poverty has been cut in half over the last 20 years, but in most countries fewer than 10 percent of people knew this. I found the book’s realistic look at the world very refreshing and a hopeful antidote to fearmongering.

The Third Plate: Field Notes on the Future of Food
The Third Plate: Field Notes on the Future of Food The best book I’ve read in the past year is The Third Plate by Dan Barber. Like most urban progressives, I’ve done the easy part, in that I shop at the farmers’ market, eat organic, and even compost when I can. Barber pushes us to do the hard part—cutting back on protein, considering sustainable agriculture, and, most importantly, doing it all while eating better than ever.

Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup
下载: https://bbs.pinggu.org/thread-6334732-1-1.html
Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup Practically overnight, Theranos went from being a $9 billion unicorn to losing it all. It’s a cautionary tale on what can happen when a captivating narrative distracts from business fundamentals—and the perils of squelching dissent at all costs. Carreyrou’s work also underscores the importance of investigative journalism, without which this story may well have never been told.

Principles: Life and Work Every leader builds their own operating system—what works for them, what mistakes they have learned from. Ray has put it all on paper in a very personal account of building his business that I’ve found incredibly useful as I look to move forward with Uber and my team. The human tendency is to celebrate successes and look away from your mistakes, but a hard look at your mistakes is often the best way to improve. Ray has done just that.

The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure
The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for FailureThe Coddling of the American Mind is a fascinating book describing how young people are being overly protected, which makes it more difficult for them to be properly prepared for the independence of college. It goes on to talk about the lack of civil discourse in society, where open and honest discussion with differing views is missing. The book discusses risk aversion, security, overprotection of young people, and confirmation bias—and the reasons why we find ourselves in this position today.

The Culture Code: The Secrets of Highly Successful Groups

The Culture Code: The Secrets of Highly Successful Groups Despite the slightly sensationalist title, the book delivers a relevant mix of solid academic research along with practical advice and not-quite-usual, if requisite, anecdotes from the trenches. Scaling a startup through the always difficult “teenage” period of a few hundred folks, when not all work relationships are high-trust by default, sent me searching for a good book on the topic—and The Culture Code certainly had some great, nonobvious insights to contribute.

Hit Refresh: The Quest to Rediscover Microsoft’s Soul and Imagine a Better Future for EveryoneHit Refresh is an insightful read about the importance of being willing to adapt to the environment you find yourself in—rather than wishing for the good old days to return. In today’s rapidly changing business environment, they rarely do. Satya explores the critical role culture plays in organizational transformation and the importance of both being a good listener and demonstrating genuine empathy. A terrific read by an inspiring leader.

Keeping At It: The Quest for Sound Money and Good Government The famed Fed chief notoriously doubled interest rates to 20 percent in a high-wire act that helped to tame inflation and resulted in four decades of price stability. His new memoir provides the backstory to his conviction that he remain "lashed to the mast” to accomplish this feat, all the while confronting backlash from a president, his family, the country, and the Fed itself in an attempted coup.
