Marc Andreessen says he’s reading these eight provocative books to better understand our world

Marc Andreessen (currently out of service) Twitter's tweets are like book review by venture capitalists. He has issued dozens of recommendations (over 100) to reveal science fiction science novels, economics, American history, political science, and Catholic diets sneaking in the American hippo industry. They are still here.

In an interview with the founder of the payment company Stripe Atlas, co-founder of Netscape and venture capital company, we support some of the most noteworthy topics in the past decade (Airbnb, Twitter, Facebook, etc.) . A challenging book he is reading to better understand the world

Like all venture capital companies, Anderson has the opportunity to invest in the next big thing. One way he does this is to pay close attention to what "Otaku will do at night and over the weekend" he calls the most reliable source of new ideas used by broader culture and economy (Interested If you have, please check crypto currency, bio hacker), self quantification, synthetic biology, virtual reality, drone, automatic driving car)

But investors also want to know the broader trend. How do you talk about the future of the past? The book is the answer. He answered this list when answering questions about books that challenged my idea. You can read the full interview here.

"Sovereigns" written twenty years ago was the most moving book about the developing nature of the 21st century and I also read this book. It is full of ideas of all the pages, many of them are quickly becoming traditional wisdom, and many are still heretic. Two related books to read are "Sovereign Mystery" and "Encryption".

Baroque cycle - a strict study of historical novels including only the superposition of the smallest science fiction tells the emergence of the modern world and its system (democracy, scientific method, financial market, etc.) in a sense . It is very fresh. These novels remind us of what happened to Neil Stephenson in 2300 about our time and problems.

Innovator's dilemma, a wasteful entrepreneurial spirit, and a challenge from zero to one are scientific thinking of trilogy of art and modern technology start-up. Indeed, all pages of all pages can be discussed, but in general, they will provide intelligent construction for the effort I wanted in the beginning of 1994!

The book I'm most looking forward to is a network and hierarchy of places and towers, an eternal battle between rising and falling networks, and human life at every level.

In 2010, Bradfeld published his first book on seven startup books. In 2013, Jason Lemkin answered the beginning of his more than 2,000 Quora questions. In 2014, Marc Andreessen introduced the power of Twitter's storm to the world. Each of these people has created a niche market for them by becoming the first platform or by applying new ways to established platforms. Today, it is difficult to find a venture capital company. At least one of them has not positively created content to position itself as the smartest VC. However, more and more venture capital firms are supporting it. This process is not a personal partner to introduce expertise, but it is constantly evolving to introduce company expertise.

Almost all technical conferences (and many non-technical business activities) will hear this cliche: "The software is eating the world." This is Marc Andreessen 's provocative framework (and highly effective marketing of his venture capital company Andreessen Horowitz), but one of the most important parts of the story was missing. Yes, almost all industries are changing by technology. But not only does the business process change, it is a way of evaluating workers, industry economics, and even how we understand the world by taking communication. Software does not swallow the world. It adapts the world to the values ​​of people who manufacture software. Not everyone is satisfied with the results
