200 Books That Influence Business Leaders

"200 Books That Influence Business Leaders" is not an ordinary reading guide, but a reading methodology. Based on the grand background of the evolution of human knowledge, the author fundamentally answers the questions of why we should read, how to read, and what books to read, and helps readers build an overall view of learning knowledge. Many people have a misunderstanding when reading, thinking that reading is to gain knowledge. In fact, acquiring knowledge is only an intermediate result of reading, not the ultimate goal. The ultimate goal of reading is to internalize the knowledge learned and build an organic knowledge network, thereby improving insight and decision-making ability, deepening the understanding of the working mechanism of the world, and living smarter. "200 Books That Influence Business Leaders" is divided into three parts: prologue, upper part, and lower part. In the first part, the author combines his own knowledge of the business world and human historical experience to emphasize the importance of understanding the working mechanism of the world, and attributes the key point to "absorbing knowledge and internalizing knowledge". In the second part, the author introduces the evolution and differentiation of human knowledge in the order of "myth → religion → philosophy → natural science → economics", helping readers initially establish a knowledge network with internal logic. In the third part, the author introduces 200 "key nodes" on the human knowledge network according to subject areas and chronological order, that is, 200 classic works that influence the process of human history.
