New Power: How Power Works in Our Hyperconnected World—and How to Make It Work for You In an ever-changing and increasingly transparent world, New Power explores human behavior and focuses on how the evolution of social networks and social movements are changing the way businesses and society interact. For anyone trying to understand how to meaningfully connect with people at scale, it can transform the way you think about what matters and how to elevate values as part of the dialogue. As someone who believes that people and humanity are the greatest forces on the planet, I found this a must-read.

The Complete Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant
The Complete Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant Given the success of Ron Chernow’s book published last year, I decided to read the original. Grant’s memoirs have always been considered among the best of any president, and my advice would always be to go as close to the primary source as possible if you can. Great read in simple, plain-spoken writing, if a bit long.

The Book of Why: The New Science of Cause and Effect
下载：https://bbs.pinggu.org/thread-6509730-1-1.html
The Book of Why: The New Science of Cause and Effect The math of inference and causality is the core of this book. I love that it is written by both a Turing Award-winning computer scientist focused on artificial intelligence and a student of philosophy who recognizes the critical importance of language and logic. Whether you run a business or make policy, The Book of Why will help you understand the math and science underlying the future of technology. “Language shapes our thoughts,” Pearl writes. We cannot ask a question that we have no words for. Therefore, we cannot train AI without blending both computer science and the humanities. “You don’t really understand AI until you can teach it to a mechanical robot,” Pearl says. Once we’ve built a moral robot, many apocalyptic visions start to recede into irrelevance.

Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts.
Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts. Leaders can sometimes be put on a pedestal when in reality, they serve their teams. It’s through being vulnerable and sharing the way we are improving that others are inspired to do the same.

Without Precedent: Chief Justice John Marshall and His Times
Without Precedent: Chief Justice John Marshall and His Times The book is about John Marshall, who served as the fourth chief justice of the Supreme Court from 1801 to 1835. It’s a well-written history about the early days of our country and the strong character of Justice Marshall and his influence in shaping the Supreme Court. The book is also very informative about the man himself: He had an eighth grade education, was raised on the frontier, and fought in the Revolutionary War with Washington.

Destined for War: Can America and China Escape Thucydides's Trap?
下载：https://bbs.pinggu.org/thread-5831435-1-1.html
Destined for War: Can America and China Escape Thucydides's Trap? A book that’s stayed with me this year is Graham Allison’s Destined for War, which examines the U.S.-China relationship in light of the so-called Thucydides Trap: the idea that violence is inevitable when a rising power crosses paths with one more established. As a history of transitions, this book provides an important perspective on what’s required to maintain mutual relations even as the terms of that relationship evolve. China and the U.S. are very different countries, founded on different sets of beliefs, with unique sets of domestic and international challenges. Add in that China may one day be a larger economy than the U.S., and you have a recipe for conflict. But it doesn’t have to come to war, and Allison points to other relationships, like the U.S. and Britain, that have instead evolved into strong partnerships. This book has provided a useful lens through which to view the world. In the years ahead, I suspect CEOs and leaders of all stripes will return to its pages for insight into our increasingly complex era. I’m glad to have read it.

Small Fry It was interesting to see a unique view into Steve Jobs’s life from the vantage point of his first daughter. Entrepreneurs are often glorified in biographies, but the hard work they do often comes with sacrifices in their personal lives, and these stories are rarely told.

Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
下载：https://bbs.pinggu.org/thread-6765657-1-1.html
Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence I picked up the book because it has “Human” and “Artificial Intelligence” in the same title. As the author, an MIT physics professor, addresses whether computers will take over the world, he reveals that we’ve been asking the wrong question. The real question is not whether machines will become smarter than humans (they certainly will in task-specific ways), but how to set goals for “artificial general intelligence” that will be beneficial to humans. This ultimately turns on a discussion of human ethical principles that may conflict with each other—a dialectic through which we get a glimpse of physicist Tegmark’s philosophical brilliance.

Love and Ruin
Love and Ruin The book I recommend is Love and Ruin by Paula McLain—author of the novel The Paris Wife. The Paris Wife was based on the relationship between Ernest Hemingway and his first wife, Hadley Richardson. This follow-up novel is based on the relationship between Hemingway and his third wife, Martha Gelhorn, a writer and journalist in her own right. I really enjoy historical fiction and nonfiction, and this is a great blend. It provides a fascinating and compelling glimpse into the couple’s intense and tumultuous relationship, as well as how both were drawn into the midst of the Spanish Civil War on the eve of World War II.
