Review:I had a relationship with this book. I glanced at her at the bookstore and passed her by twice. Gave her the eye and read her back side. I opened her up and read a few pages. I wrote down her title and found her on kindle because she was cheaper there. I started slowly and read the first few chapters. She remained hidden in my kindle for a few weeks. Boredom. I remembered she still existed and resumed reading. We took a walk through history and she explained all these wonderful things. ... Read more

Review:Disappointing. I was hoping for more insights, tips and anecdotes. What I got was a lot of self aggrandizement. He spent a lot of time telling us how accomplished he is and nothing much about how he did it. Kind of like his presidential bid. A lot of talk about what he would like to do but nothing on how he will accomplish it. Read more

Review:The riveting, astonishing and inspirational story of the women who took us to space starting in the 1940s and continuing through every NASA space mission. This is a record of immense importance and a story that was nearly lost. Yet it is an edge of your seat page turner.

Review:Richard H. Thaler traces in this book the origin and the making of 'Behavioural Economics', where core premises of the classical economic theory and generally accepted hypotheses in matter of finance and markets, are questioned.

Core premises
Core premises of economic theory are that people choose by optimizing (rational choices) and that supply equals demand (price equilibrium). These premises assume that economic decisions are taken by a selfish and rational agent: the homo economicu... Read more

Review:This is the first math book I picked up since I left college with a M.Sc in Math 23 years ago. It reinvigorates my propensity towards mathematics. Simon Singh has the thrill of drawing readers like me, who have left the academic community and entered the commercial world for such a long time, to rethink and substantiate our love of mathematics.
The history part of this book is particularly nostalgic to me when all the great names of mathematician flash pages over pages.
Though this ... Read more

The book gives you some questions to ask yourself about any Logic Game or Logical Reasoning stimulus.

When to read it: Before you begin studying or when you need a break. Read more
