The Almanack of Naval Epilogue: Recommended Reading

This final episode of The Almanack of Naval Ravikant includes Naval’s favorite books, his recommended reading, and more thoughts. This is a great resource to view Naval’s influences, and to find books to read deeper on key ideas from the book: investing, mental models, happiness, philosophy, and science. You’ll notice authors like Matt Ridley, Nassim Taleb, Richard Feynman, and more as well as some blog posts from Naval in this Epilogue.   Huge thanks to Sky King for his help.

I read out of curiosity and interest. The best book is the one you’ll devour. - Naval Ravikant   Read enough, and you become a connoisseur. Then you naturally gravitate more toward theory, concepts, nonfiction. - Naval Ravikant   I always spent money on books. I never viewed that as an expense. That’s an investment to me. - Naval Ravikant   If you eat, invest, and think according to what the “news” advocates, you’ll end up nutritionally, financially, and morally bankrupt. - Naval Ravikant
