Reading

My library & to-read list. TGB and TGB-NF refer to rankings on The Greatest Books' fiction and nonfiction lists, respectively. I've relied heavily on the Open Syllabus' Galaxy project for nonfiction books.

(S) indicates physical books currently on the shelf, (A) indicates books in my Audible library, and (L) indicates lost or on loan. Books are classified by subject according to a system adapted from the BISAC Subject Headings List, Dewey Decimal Classification, and Wikipedia's Outline of Science. Within sections, books are sorted lexicographically by author last name.

Word count and page count are very approximate.



Giving

I'm interested in using my surplus income to increase human health, happiness and flourishing as efficiently as possible. My current preferred charities are those recommended by GiveWell.
