Taste of Original Works!!!

October 14, 2007

Guys, I have been reading books for quiet some time and now have started concentrating on non-fictions. Pleasure of reading original works is amazing. For example, “The Wealth of Nations” by Adam Smith (The father of Economics).

Reason being we know how important Economics is, however given the paucity of time, we don’t concentrate on the original or the fundamental theory behind the present day beliefs to appreciate it. But when we do it, the feeling is great!

Experience it, it is nice. Believe me!

    i have read some non-fiction… but the transition (from fic to non-fic) is not very easy … do write about other books(non-fic) which have impressed you…

    @ Biju - He writes lot of economics and the facts he quotes are interesting. As of now, it is more about his pre-fed-chairman era. Till now (4 chapters), wealth creation at individual level is not being spoken about.

    To start with you may start to read with Rich Dad Poor Dad series - very good series.

    @ Chandrasekharan - Sure, will write about other non-fiction very soon (mostly physics… ;) :)
