We Pick Books That Will Matter 12 Months From Now.

  • Big ideas with real-world impact (science, business, psychology, culture)
  • Authors who are shaping the conversation—not chasing it
  • Books worth reading cover-to-cover (and discussing with the author)

 

“Love the great books you choose!  So many new ideas that have broadened my worldview and creativity.  I also find the mini-courses and emails so handy both for review and to give me the big ideas if I don’t have time to read that particular book.” – Cathy
