Shayan is on page 185 of 480 of The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable
He yaps a lot and makes fun of economists.
Lots of interesting and thought provoking ideas though.

Shayan is on page 130 of 291 of The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine
Very informative about cool aspects of the inner workings of the financial sector. Some concepts are a bit complicated and difficult to fully understand immediately, but eventually I get it 😅

The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine

Shayan is on page 20 of 272 of All the Shah's Men: An American Coup and the Roots of Middle East Terror
Feels like the author has a bit too much bias towards sympathizing with the Persians. Presents historical facts but follows up by telling you how to feel about them and interpret them.

Shayan is starting Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood
Funny, easy to read. Outlines life lessons that hold true beyond the pages of the book.

Shayan is on page 119 of 368 of What Is Mathematics, Really?
Kinda boring. Started interesting but now it’s just quoting other books and listing histories of philosophers.
