Personal Q&A

  • What was the last book you read?

    What was the last book you read?
I read a lot, so here's a selection of some of the best books I've read recently: - Build by Tony Fadell (An inside account from one of the key creators of the iPod, iPhone and Nest about how to successfully innovate, scale teams and ultimately create products that have impact) - Talking to Strangers by Malcolm Gladwell (A really rather bleak study into the consequences of misunderstanding people you don't know) - Jews don't count by David Baddiel (An eye-opening read highlighting how invisible, yet utterly widespread anti-semitism is today) - 29 Seconds by T.M. Logan (My last holiday read, a real page-turner)
