    Books that Bill Gates read in 2013

    I am probably going to read: a) Harvesting the Biosphere, by Vaclav Smil
    and b) The World Until Yesterday, by Jared Diamond.

    Focus: The Hidden Driver of Excellence [Kindle Edition]
    Daniel Goleman (Author)

    http://www.amazon.com/Focus-Hidden-...?ie=UTF8&qid=1389897446&sr=8-1&keywords=focus

    I am fascinated by the subject. I claim that a huge component of genius is the ability to focus on levels that are superhuman. I found this book to be interesting on many levels.

    Focused attention might even be the definition of conciousness itself. Serial correlation of thinking depends on it.

    I have posted some. However, I doubt you would like the ones I like.

    For me, the most interesting books that I have posted on this subject are:

    Anything by Joseph Campbell, e.g.

    http://www.amazon.com/Thousand-Face...id=1389898405&sr=8-1&keywords=joseph+campbell

    Anything by Richard Rohr, e.g.,

    http://www.amazon.com/Falling-Upwar...898431&sr=8-2-spell&keywords=falling+upwardds

    And then this one:

    http://www.amazon.com/Religion-Athe...9898480&sr=8-1&keywords=religion+for+atheists

  7. Thanks. My utmost interest is to experience oneness with higher power. I meditate regularly and some times I am amazed so much time has passed in that state.
