Almost unbelievable life story of David Goggins who probably lacks self-preservation instinct. Too extreme to be a true self-help book, but there are some truths in what he is telling (preaching).
How to Win Friends and Influence People

Dennett’s latest attempt at explaining our mind and its evolution.
When Things Fall Apart

He is a great author, but personally, he gets natural language completely wrong.
The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
I should probably read the whole book, this blink certainly was interesting!
The Great Mental Models II
Comparatively worse than the first book (blink)
How to Make People Like You in 90 Seconds
This books comes with a classification of people into three groups: visual, tonal and motoric, which seems quite plausible and useful.
How to Create a Mind
Hard to tell if the book is really so bad by the blink but I was expecting little more from such an author.
Genius
A biography of Richard Feynman. Nothing memorable.
Conscious
A hard topic to write about. I expected a bit more since Sam Harris (her husband) and some other notable authors and scientists have recommended the book.
The Parasitic Mind
Bit misleading title for the book full of angry arguments against overly liberal policies mainly in USA. I stopped listening to the audio version of the book circa in the middle.
Antifragile
Taleb introduces another great term—antifragility—which can be found in many areas. And which can be consciously improved. It’s more than robustness.
Lifespan
There is a slight chance that our generation can live to 100 years with a good health. There is also a non-negligible chance that we won’t die.
Edison
Bylo tu však něco krásného co drtí odvaha a radost z života i smrti…
The Great Mental Models I
Probably the best (and funniest) was Hanlon’s razor: never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity
The Book of Why
Not very engaging but definitely important topic of correlation, causation, statistics and AI.
Making the Modern World
Hard to assess properly from blink, but Bill Gates recommends this author repeatedly so I should probably read something unabridged from him in the future.
Life 3.0
Probably need to read it in full.
Algorithms to Live By
Well known algorithms. Nothing extraordinary.
How to Lie with Statistics
Maybe blinkist is summarizing the books badly as I tend to score the books from Blinkist quite low.

Must read
God is not great
Hitchens has much more arguments against religions than other prominentatheist writers (e.g. Dawkins with his God’s delusion) and this book seemed more compelling.
Everything is Fucked
His previous book was much better, but this one is better compared to other self-help books I have read.

Velmi dlouhý argument o tom, proč je věda, vzdělání dobrá.

Chvály Zadní země
Méně známá knížečka od libereckého poutníka Míly Nevrlého.
Boj o první místo
Jedna z nejslabších knih od Foglara
21 Lessons for the 21st Century
The third book from Harari, probably the weakest of the three, but still a fun to read.
Mým marodům
Spousta zajímavých myšlenek, ale je potřeba autora brát s rezervou. Což je tedy potřeba asi vždy a všude.
Deep Work
It was not so eye-opening, probably because I’ve read a bunch of similar books before this one—I liked Essentialism much more.
The Death's End
It. Was. Grand. I consider it to be almost on a par with A. C. Clarke’s work.
The Three-Body Problem
The first fiction book after a while and it was worth it. I want more!
Essentialism
One of the best self-help book I’ve read.
Digital Minimalism
Read Essentialism instead.
The 4-Hour Workweek
Stop working and fully enjoy your life! Easy, isn’t it?
It Starts With Food
Whole30 diet, not very good for vegans and vegetarians :)
Homo Deus
If you consider yourself an intellectual, you should read this since all people considering themselves as intellectuals probably have read this book as well, myself included.
Sapiens
An instant favourite. What a thinker this Harari!
The Power of Habit
Understand how habits are made and broken and change your life!
Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!
Funny. So famous that you need to read it.
The Laws of Simplicity
The topic of simplicity is really complex.
The Moral Landscape
An attempt at formalizing or defining morality. That’s a hard task, but Harris doesn’t fail completely.
The Gene
Not so good as his previous book about cancer.
Economix
Great non-fiction comix. I want more of these!
Science in the Soul
Richard Dawkins selected short writings
Factfulness
Knihu jsem koupil babičce (česky). Clippings from Kindle If you want to convince someone they are suffering from a misconception, it’s very useful to be able to test their opinion against the data. Eighty-five percent of mankind are already inside the box that used to be named “developed world.” Most of your firsthand experiences are from Level 4; and that your secondhand experiences are filtered through the mass media, which loves nonrepresentative extraordinary events and shuns normality.
The End of Faith
Another attempt at attacking religion from one of Four Horsemen.
The Formation of Vegetable Mould
The last book of Darwin which perfectly shows how rigorous he was and that he was such a talent for discovering of long-term phenomena.
Thing Explainer
You can’t make a mistake with anything from Randall Munroe if you like science and engineering. He is brilliant.
I Contain Multitudes
It felt to me like a very long blog entry or a longish article on web rather than a science popular book.
Open Access
A good overview of the issue with publishing science
The Structure of Scientific Revolutions
Hard to read. Both history and acquaintance made me doubt that practitioners of the natural sciences possess firmer or more permanent answers to such questions than their colleagues in social science. (Friday, July 17, 2015, 03:59 PM, page 73-74) Normal science, for example, often suppresses fundamental novelties because they are necessarily subversive of its basic commitments. (Friday, July 17, 2015, 04:29 PM, page 212-13) That is why a new theory, however special its range of application, is seldom or never just an increment to what is already known.
Metamagical Themas
An anthology of Hofstadter’s articles in Scientific American
A Short History of Nearly Everything
A good non-fiction audiobook if you are cooking or cleaning your room.
Chaos
An overview of a completely new scientific field
The Demon-Haunted World
A great book by a great scholar. I expected more science and less politics, but still, great reading.
Guns, germs, and steel
Goodreads review: I agree with the opinion in the book and I like the whole idea but the arguments could have been much shorter and denser. It was bit boring. emergence of writing around 3,000 B.C. also receives brief treatment, although it constitutes 99.9% of the five-million-year history of the human species. (Friday, July 17, 2015, 05:25 PM, page 133-35) Today, most live-born Western infants survive fatal infections as well and reproduce themselves, regardless of their intelligence and the genes they bear.
The Ancestor's Tale
Goodreads review: Another great book from Dawkins. I would love to have like 100 more pictures to illustrate the living or extinct animals. I think it could be made much more accessible even for non-biologists by adding more illustrations and pictures. I would also expect at least some discussion about viruses, viroids, prions even they are not considered as life and not part of the tree of life. And mind that there is a great wiki page about the book with survey of the ancestors and concestors.
Gödel, Escher, Bach
Probably the hardest book I’ve ever read. If you want to get the overall idea, read I am a strange loop instead.
What If?
What If is an instant favourite for me. Funny, full of interesting stuff.
On Intelligence
This book had an impact on me while working on my PhD thesis as it resonated with my view of artificial (machine) intelligence. I think that I borrowed it from NLP centre’s library and it is a book from Pavel Rychlý. Lex Fridman’s podcast with Jeff Criterions for brain models inclusion of time in brain function importance of feedback model should account for neocortex structure auto-associative memory retrieving patterns (p.
Foundations of Statistical Natural Language Processing
Sometimes it felt a bit out-dated but the explanations of various algorithms and principles was very good and understanable.
Consciousness Explained
The quasivisual nature of the phenomenology of comprehension has been almost entirely ignored by researchers in cognitive science, particularly in Artificial Intelligence, who have attempted to create language-understanding computer systems. Why have they turned their beck on the phenomenology? Probably largely beceuse of their conviction that the phenomenology, however real and fascinating, is nonfunctional — a wheel that turns but engages none of the important machinery of comprehension. (Sunday, October 19, 2014, 04:53 PM, page 56)
The Oxford Book of Modern Science Writing
A contemporary has said, not unjustly, that in this materialistic age of ours the ser ious scientifi c workers are the only profoundly religious people. (Wednesday, September 24, 2014, 04:19 PM, page 257) ‘More is different’ (Monday, September 29, 2014, 07:17 AM, page 400)
The Red Queen
Doporučení od Honzy Michelfeita. Goodreads review: Packed with new information, many examples, clever ideas - it was delight to read each day on my way to work. The evolution processes are much more complex than we could ever imagine - propelled by the Red Queen phenomenon. Despite the fact our brains have not been designed to understand fully their own evolution but it is nice keep trying to learn more and more about it - and this is so awesome, the never ending story of science!
Labyrinths
“Why take five hundred pages,” he asks, “to develop an idea whose oral demonstration fits into a few minutes?” (Thursday, June 19, 2014, 07:14 PM, page 155) As the Argentine novelist Ernesto Sábato remarked in 1945, “if Borges were French or Czech, we would all be reading him enthusiastically in bad translations.” (Friday, June 20, 2014, 10:43 AM, page 303-4)
Language Myths
A set of short articles about language myths. Some great, some weak, but good overall.
The Extended Phenotype
The book was quite hard to follow since it is very academical and if you are not acquainted with biology and genetics I think it will be hard to follow for you too.
Musicophilia
It is clear from this book that music and its perception is very deeply engraved into our brain.
The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection
This is a must-read for all students. The style is not very entertaining but there are only a few such impactful book in the world.
The Paradox of Choice
If I read this book before all those Arielys, Kahnemans, then it would be much more interesting and mind-boggling.
Bad Science
An overview of the problems with the current state of science and its methods and procedures
I Am a Strange Loop
Hofstadter’s Law, which states, “It always takes longer than you think it will take, even when you take into account Hofstadter’s Law”), (Wednesday, June 19, 2013, 03:26 PM, page 457-58) publish-or-perish pressures, or perhaps even worse, the relentless pressures of grant-chasing. (Wednesday, June 19, 2013, 04:05 PM, page 502-3) I wish that more thinkers wrote in a first-person fashion. (Wednesday, June 19, 2013, 04:12 PM, page 512-13) It is curious, how one often mistrusts one’s own opinions if they are stated by someone else.
The Da Vinci Code
My first book read in English and while travelling.
The Emperor of All Maladies
Cancer seems to be an inevitable part of our biology
Reč těla
Learn to manage your body expressions to help you persuade, empathize, soothe, … others
Nahé slunce
Už jako kluk jsem však nedokázal uvěřit, že by poznání mohlo být nebezpečné, že řešením je nevědomost. Mně se vždy zdálo, že řešením je vědění. (Wednesday, April 03, 2013, 07:29 AM, page 15-17)
Thinking, Fast and Slow
I started reading a Czech translation but then switched to the English version. My Goodreads review: Clever, courageous and it strongly supports my convinction that we are just a bit better than apes. I systematické chyby či biasy haló efekt: tendence hodnotit člověka podle prvního dojmu Amor Tversky intuitivní statistika je mnohem snazší usilovat o dokonalost, když se nikdy nenudíte teorii o roli podobnosti v předvídání moje: stereotypní vlastnosti aktivují víc knihovníka (popis člověka na jehož základě se má odhadnout jeho profese) je mnohem snadnější najít slovo, které začíná určitým písmenem, než přijí tna slovo, které má toto písmeno na třetím místě uvažujte písmeno K objeví se K ve slovech s větší pravděpodobností jako první písmeno, nebo jako třetí písmeno?
The Greatest Show on Earth
Bertrand Russell said, ‘We may all have come into existence five minutes ago, provided with ready-made memories, with holes in our socks and hair that needed cutting.’ (Wednesday, April 03, 2013, 08:48 AM, page 234-35) psychologists studying the development of language tell us that children are natural essentialists. (Wednesday, April 03, 2013, 10:16 AM, page 358-59) One of Darwin’s most telling weapons in arguing against this supposed immutability was the evidence from domestication, (Wednesday, April 03, 2013, 10:26 AM, page 413-14)
Ocelové jeskyně
Další výborná kniha od Asimova.
A Brief History Of Time
The most often unfinished book of all times. Hard to digest but a real treat for curious minds.
Malý princ
Everytime you read it I learn something new.
The God Delusion
Dawkins’ attack on the religion. This probably won’t make you an apostate but I liked it a lot as many other Dawkins’ books.
Desatero domácí ekologie
Rady a tipy pro domácnosti. Některé rozumné, některé přehnané, ale žádné zbytečné.
A Dance with Dragons

A Feast for Crows
4th book from Martin’s epos.
Jak drahá je intuice
Third book from Dan Ariely. A bit less entertaining but still very informative.
I Am Legend
A fiction book about last surviror on Earth, fighting zombies. Classic.
A Clash of Kings
Překladatelské perličky Navzdory neutuchajícím hádkám mezi jejím otcem a jeho bratrem, kterého kdysi vyvlastnil, panovalo hluboké pouto. (Friday, November 02, 2012, 05:38 PM, page 1759-60) z opasku mu visela drahokamy vykládaná dýka a pozlacená pochva s mečem. (Tuesday, November 06, 2012, 04:45 PM, page 6699)
A Game of Thrones
1st book of Martin’s epos.
Pavučina lží
26. ledna jsem rozečetl knihu od Dana Browna. Šifru mistra Leonarda jsem viděl, Andělé a démony také. Dočetl jsem ji s Barunkou 2. 2. – poslední kapitoly jsme si předčítali navzájem. Děj se točil kolem fingovaného nálezu meteoritu s údajnými mimozemskými zkaměnělinami. Šlo o objev NASA, ale byl narafičen, měl pouze zvednout kredit NASA před veřejností. Kniha byla docela čtivá, ale děj příliš připomínál mustr amerických trháků: zajímavá zápletka, napínavý průběh, ale všichni záporňáci byly buď znemožněni, nebo zabiti a všichni klaďasi se zachránili ze spárů zla a nesnází.
The Black Swan
My first book from Taleb and an instant favourite
Jak drahé je zdarma
Anchors, framing, prospect theory and much more
The Selfish Gene
This book has changed my life. often the most important contribution a scientist can make is to discover a new way of seeing old theories or facts. (Monday, March 12, 2012, 10:40 PM, page 80-81) evolution is blind to the future. (Thursday, April 05, 2012, 05:58 AM, page 272) it is ultimately these mistakes that make evolution possible. (Friday, April 06, 2012, 01:08 PM, page 419-20) willy-nilly, (Friday, April 06, 2012, 01:12 PM, page 439)
Slova a pravidla
Knížka od Pinkera. Přestal jsem ji číst, protože nesouhlasím s teorií, kterou tam Pinker popisuje. Obsahuje spoustu pěkných příkladů, ale jejich interpretace mě rozčilovala, tak jsem ji asi v půlce odložil.
