This classic short story was recommended by a friend and I can’t believe I hadn’t read it before. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s a quick read but moving. The lessons are many and are profoundly communicated.

You’ll notice this book is similar to the one from last week. I’m reading these to learn how the various technologies we use daily connect together. The best way to understand connections is to understand the origin(s) of the individual pieces. This book is also scratching my itch for general knowledge.

There is great value in continuous learning in a variety of areas, even if they seem disconnected. Over time, all of those learnings compound and produce connections most other people won’t ever see. These connections make you a unique individual, able to plug into any conversation about most topics and bring value to people you otherwise wouldn’t have been able to.

My aunt gave me this one for Christmas and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it. Dartnell explores the fundamental building blocks of everything we enjoy about modern civilization.

It’s remarkable to think about how long it took us to arrive at the technological maturity level we experience today.

I finished this one by Perman this week. It is encouraging, biblical, and practical. It is changing my daily approach to productivity more than any other content I’ve crunched in the last five years.
