Reading List
What I'm drawn toward next
Not just titles — a small note on why each book is on this list. The queue is a window into where my thinking is heading.
- 01 Society
Annihilation of Caste
Cannot think seriously about Indian society, education, or inequality without engaging with Ambedkar directly — not through summaries. Have been circling this for months.
- 02 Education
How Children Fail
One of the foundational texts on how schooling actually damages curiosity and genuine thinking. Directly relevant to what I'm building with Superslate.
- 03 Cognition
Gödel, Escher, Bach
On consciousness, recursion, and self-reference. Has been on the list for years. The time feels right given how much I am thinking about thinking itself.
- 04 Society
Poor Economics
Want to ground my intuitions about poverty in evidence, not ideology. Reading before I form too many fixed positions.
- 05 History
The Discovery of India
Want to read how an intelligent, conflicted man understood his own country at a moment of rupture. For the historical perspective, but also for the model of engaged thinking.
