I had all of those needs and grabbed "Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future" by Peter Theil, which was sitting on my home bookshelf. I was stunned at the insights I took from it — and I’ve read it before! When it comes to crystal clear thinking on innovation, investing, and thinking about the future, this is one of the best. This book is full of durable “first principle” style insights and frameworks.
