Books
The following are books I have read, what I am reading, and what I still need to read.
I don't hesitate to purchase any book I feel will be of value, since a single idea can be worth an extreme multiple more than the cost of the book. This is why you may see a large list of purchased books that have not been read.
A date in parentheses is the date for which I read the book.
