Enjoying brilliant, often provocative, Peter Thiel book, Zero to One. Will buy many and distribute to all senior execs.

Re-read Matt Ridley's great book The Rational Optimist after 5 years. As stimulating as ever. Hope next book coming soon.

Great reading. The Talent Code, by Daniel Coyle. Forget genes! Greatness isn't born, it's grown - the hard way.

Can't wait to start reading Niall Ferguson's new book, Civilization, The West and the Rest. Bet lots to think about.

Enjoying reading Nicolas Berggruen's Intelligent Governance for the 21 st Century. Heavy going, but sweeping views, if too optimistic.

Very proud of friend @JoelIKlein on his book Lessons of Hope. Relentless advocate for students and better schools.

Great time to be reading Rich Lowry's fascinating new Lincoln Unbound. Surely our greatest, most interesting president.

@KurMudGin Carson would make a great candidate. Reading his wonderful book, One Nation. Recommend to everybody.

Looking forward to reading Paul Ryan's The Way Forward. Ryan the most influential Republican in Congress. Will report.
