¡IMPERDIBLE! Este es el libro que estuve buscando por años. Analiza las raíces psicológicas del fanatismo de un modo riguroso, sistemático y accionable. La idea central: El fanático deshumaniza al enemigo, y también a sí mismo.

Un pantallazo sobre la historia del pensamiento occidental. Simplifica y resume (quizás excesivamente) las ideas de muchos filósofos intercalando fragmentos de sus obras. Muy útil para identificar qué autores te gustaría investigar más.

Excelente relato en primera persona que muestra cómo Barack formó sus ideas, cómo se metió en la política, y cómo es la experiencia de ser legislador y presidente. Atrapante. Íntimo. Humano.

Brilliant introduction to Adlerian psychology, which despite not being as popular as its alternatives, provides incredible tools for approaching empathy, education, self-reliance and interpersonal relationships.

Indispensable for all parents and teachers in the world, in my opinion.

Powerful, moving, brilliant.

Amazing book. By far the most comprehensive resource I've seen on the subject.

And the level of scientific rigor is astonishing: every single important claim includes source/citations.

Conciso y accionable.

Impactante. Imprescindible.

Amazing. Just... amazing.

¡Increíble!

Hermoso. 😍

Should be titled: “Escaping from Stress”

Meh.

Amazing. 😍

Wonderful ❤️

Decent read.

El mejor libro sobre adicciones que leí hasta ahora. Muy recomendado. (El título en español creo que es “Es fácil dejar de fumar si sabes cómo”)

Amazing.

Great insights, but too dilluted for my taste.

Gary's energy is freaking contagious.

This is pretty amazing.

It's actually baffling how by reading this book and Brain Maker by David Perlmutter you can substantially reduce the risk of mental, degenerative and inflammatory diseases.

Everyone who wants to reach an old age in a healthy state should read this book.

“No está mal, pero no es fabuloso” (Homero Simpson)

One of the best personal development books I've read (and trust me, I've read a bunch of them).

Excellent for better understanding addictions and habits, and making changes.

Amazing. I'm at loss of words.

Barack's intelligence, integrity and eloquence seem beyond what's humanly possible.

As an argentinian, I wish one day we have a president of this caliber.

Good read. I loved the first half of it or so, where it gives great insights about habit building, the importance of it, why most of us fail at it, and how to improve.

The last part dives into specific examples... which is interesting, but I've found much, much better specific advice in other books.

I highly recommend some complementary reads:

- Switch, by Dan Heath. Gives a deeper understanding of how to build habits and make changes.
- The Now Habit, by Neil Fiore. Great for overcoming procrastination.
- The Miracle Morning, by Hal Elrod. Absolutely amazing for becoming an early riser.
- Producer's Guide to Workflow and Creativity, by Sam Matla. Strangely this is one is a book for music producers, but... I found it has AMAZING habit-building and productivity tips that would apply to pretty much anyone. I noticed it strategically condenses and combines the best content from many of the books I mention above.
