From Silk to Silicon: The story of Globalisation in 10 extraordinary lives, by Jeffrey E Garten

Badly written history is boring. But globalisation has changed us like nothing else. This book looks at 10 of the most important people who have changed the world, ranging from Deng Xiaoping to Margaret Thatcher to John D Rockefeller.

What if: Serious Scientific answers to absurd hypothetical questions, by Randall Munroe

Randall is the creator of the brilliant comic series XKCD. In this book he answers random af questions like, can I stir a cup of tea fast enough to heat it, when will Facebook contain profiles of more dead people than alive people, if all Britishers went to the coast of Britain and started paddling, could they move the island. Even if you dont check out this book, just check out xkcd comics.

I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it.
