(2020-09-10) Perell Summarize The Canon

David Perell: Summarize the Canon. Every discipline has a book that everybody references, but nobody reads. In physics, it’s The Feynman Lectures; in philosophy, it’s Godel, Escher, Bach; in sociology, it’s Das Kapital, in English, it’s Infinite Jest; in communications, it’s Understanding Media; in biology, it’s The Origin of Species; in computer science, it’s The Art of Computer Programming; in investing, it’s The Intelligent Investor; and in economics, it’s The Wealth of Nations. Build an audience by summarizing these books. By doing so, you’ll do yourself and the world a favor.
