Based on countless pages of Leonardo da Vinci’s notebooks as well as discoveries about his life and work, Walter Isaacson creates a chronological account connecting Leonardo’s art and science to the inner workings of his mind. He narrates Leonardo’s genius which had blurred the lines between talent and constant self-improvements like his relentless curiosity, careful observation, and limitless imagination. Leonardo created the two most famous paintings, The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa; but the book allows a peek into his own mind showing that he was also a man in pursuit of knowledge. With interests that sometimes become obsessive, he pursued an understanding of anatomy, hydraulics, flight, optics, geology, and weapon design. His weaving through different disciplines had drawn him to the creation of the Vitruvian man which had made him history’s greatest creative genius. His creativity stemmed from an interest in various disciplines which had led him to extensively drawing accurate representations of the human body to the painting of history’s most enigmatic smile. He explored optics, upon light reflecting the eyes which had provided the changing perspectives in The Last Supper. Isaacson accounts Leonardo’s love for pageantry which had informed his paintings and inventions. Leonardo’s love for creating bridges between various disciplines had become the greatest recipe for creativity. This included his life being a misfit: illegitimate, gay, vegetarian, left-handed, restless, and sometimes heretical. His life reminds us of the importance of questioning what we know now and letting our imagination, like talented misfits, create different outcomes. Wait no more, take action and get this book now!

Renowned psychologist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics Daniel Kahneman shows us how the mind has two systems that drive how we think. In Thinking, Fast and Slow, the first system—System 1—is the fast, intuitive, and emotional system while the second system—System 2—is the slower, more deliberate, and logical system. Kahneman shows the impact of overconfidence in making decisions, the difficulties of predicting happiness in the future, and the profound effect of having cognitive biases. These can be understood based on how the two systems control our judgments and decisions. Kahneman shows us when our intuitions can be helpful and when it can’t as well as how we can get the benefits of slow thinking. He gives us practical insights into how we make our choices both in business and in our personal lives as well as what techniques we can use in order to protect ourselves against the lapses that can cause us trouble. Given the National Academy of Sciences Best Book Award, the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, and The New York Times Book Review as one of the ten best books of 2011, Thinking, Fast and Slow is a book that would certainly affect how we think and hows we live our lives.

Atul Gawande’s book, The Checklist Manifesto introduces the checklist: a modified solution to help professionals absorb and master how they execute certain essential tasks that define their responsibilities in their respective industries. Present-day roles in the industry are more intricate in nature, prompting more rigorous training and technology at a more advanced level. However, training and technological advancement are simply not always sufficient. Gawande’s alternative and simplistic solution is based on a checklist that was originally introduced by the American Air Force. This checklist served as a guide to help pilots in maneuvering sophisticated types of aircrafts. Modified into an innovative checklist that suits modern-day industries and professions, it became an effective tool that equipped doctors and nurses worldwide in delivering quick, complete and professional response to all types of accidents and calamities. Aside from the healthcare industry, Gawande’s checklist eventually benefitted businesses such as skyscraper construction and investment banking, along with life-saving protocols involved in disaster response procedures. From Austria to Michigan, real-life accounts of how the checklist has been tremendously helpful are disclosed. These accounts include how an emergency checklist was a key factor in saving a drowning patient who had been submerged underwater for approximately 30 minutes; as well how a cleanliness checklist implemented in intensive care units was instrumental in eradicating a life-threatening infection commonly contracted in hospitals. Gawande, a public health researcher, surgeon and writer, further explains the way checklists trigger urgent and outstanding progress especially in professions where time, precision and efficiency are crucial. The struggle is over for the hardworking workforce of today’s industries. The Checklist Manifesto is the perfect book for people striving to reach the level of competence needed in executing the undertakings that come with their job.
