2011 reading list
published onAlex Hayes asked for a list of what I'm reading. I have to say it has not been a big reading year for me but here's a couple I can certainly recommend:
Cognitive Surplus - Clay Shirky
The Element - Ken Robinson
I have, however, a rather large pile awaiting my 2011 change of direction.
So here's my as yet unread bookshelf of non-fiction (somewhat work related) :
The future of ideas - Lawrence Lessig
The wealth of networks - Yochai Benkler
Leadership for the disillusioned - Amanda Sinclair
The new influencers - Paul Gillin
Made to stick - Chip Heath & Dan Heath
What do you do for a living? - Stephen Johnston
What is your dangerous idea? - J Brockman (ed)
What makes us tick? - Hugh Mackay
What's mine is yours - R Botsman & R Rogers
Multipliers - Liz Wiseman
Drive - Daniel Pink
Socialnomics - Eric Qualman
The power of pull - J Hagel et al
Digital Habitats - Etienne Wenger et al
The brain that changes itself - Norman Doidge
What I find interesting is the underpinning themes and how they differ to Alex's list over here.
Same field; different directions
