3 Books - Neil Pasricha's Search for the 1000 Most Formative Books (1/4) - Page 4

The first 250 (1000-751) books from Neil Pasricha's podcast 3 Books, which is an approximately 15 year long mission to uncover the 1000 most formative books in the world. Started in March 2018, the podcast concludes in September 2031. This is part 1 that includes the first 250 books. I plan to update with parts 2-4 as the books are named.
