What to Read in 2016

Happy 2016 to you and your families! For as long as I can remember, my New Year’s resolution has been to read more books. That makes our annual survey of The Information subscribers’ favorite books a real treat.

This year, subscribers’ picks were heavy on history. What is it about this moment that has technology leaders turning to the past? We sprinkled in a title about Erlang for you programmers and some self help for entrepreneurs. Thank you to all who shared their picks, and we’d love subscribers to add more recommendations in the comments on the Web site. And here is last year’s list if you missed it!
