Favorite book of the series so far

I think all the books are great. I haven’t read the “.5” books, but I think the universe is great, along with awesome characters, and great dragons.

Referring to Lewis Carroll's Red Queen from Through the Looking-Glass, a character who has to keep running to stay in the same place, Matt Ridley demonstrates why sex is humanity's best strategy for outwitting its constantly mutating internal predators.

Entertaining and Educating
Revisado: 10-11-23
The beginning is a little dense if you’re not very familiar with biology, but worth listening to because the principles discussed are fundamental to later theories and explanations.
Incredibly thought-provoking. I really appreciate the presentation of competing theories and then the breakdown of evidence for and against each and then the logical discussion that follows.

Historia
To most people, the word economics sounds like homework. In Visible Hand, Wall Street Journal op-ed editor Matthew Hennessey brings basic economic principles vividly to life in plain English, without resorting to numbers, graphs, or jargon. This isn’t Fed policy or the stock market. This is the essential stuff: supply and demand, incentives and tradeoffs, scarcity and innovation, work and leisure.

Wonderfully simple and fun read

As someone who already had a decent understanding of economics, this was still a wonderful book. For the newbie, this is a great way to understand basic concepts. For an economist, it’s another perspective that can help you better distill concepts to others.

Historia
In 2014, Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes was widely seen as the next Steve Jobs: a brilliant Stanford dropout whose startup “unicorn” promised to revolutionize the medical industry with its breakthrough device, which performed the whole range of laboratory tests from a single drop of blood. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, Theranos sold shares in a fundraising round that valued the company at more than $9 billion, putting Holmes’s worth at an estimated $4.5 billion.

Real Life Thriller

Told through the perspective of eye witness accounts and and factual events. Great book on the inner workings of a fraudulent startup. It’s easy to see how so many were swept up in the ordeal.
