Mark Zuckerberg has revealed his latest pick for his book club, A Year of Books. His selection: The Player of Games by Iain Banks.
The Facebook founder posted his choice to his Facebook page. “This is a change of pace from all the recent social science books. Instead, it’s a science fiction book about an advanced civilization with AI and a vibrant culture,” he wrote. “In other news, my pile of books to read is growing faster than I can get through it while running a large company.”
Previous choices have included: Muqaddimah by Ibn Khaldun; Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari; The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander; and Hank Paulson‘s Dealing With China.
Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has taken a jab at the anti-vaxxer movement in his latest book club selection.
During the month of March, his book club is reading On Immunity by Eula Biss, a book that debunks misconceptions about immunity. “Vaccination is an important and timely topic,” writes Zuckerberg in the Facebook post announcing the pick. “The science is completely clear: vaccinations work and are important for the health of everyone in our community.”
“This book explores the reasons why some people question vaccines, and then logically explains why the doubts are unfounded and vaccines are in fact effective and safe,” he continues.
