In his latest notes, Bill Gates disclosed the list of books which he wants young people to read. He said ‘I loved all of them and hope you will find something you enjoy too’. The topic in the book covers the range of equality, political polarization, climate change, and the truth which is hard. The books are:
The Power by Naomi Alderman related to gender, women and inequality.
Why We are Polarized by Ezra Klein related to increased polarization in American Politics.
The Lincoln Highway by Amor Towles is related to History.
The Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson discusses climate change.
How the World Really Works by Vaclav Smil talked about fundamental forces that shape human life.
Bill Gates added that none of the books is more than 600 pages, which is quite reasonable to read this summer for personal development and quality summer time.
