TED Books

Now you can dig deeper into ideas with new, original books from TED. Long enough to explore a powerful idea but short enough to read in a single sitting, TED Books pick up where TED Talks leave off. This wide-ranging series will cover everything from architecture to business, space travel to love.


TED Books box sets

TED Books are now available in four specially curated collections: The Completist, The Science Mind, The Creative Mind, and The Business Mind. These beautiful box sets are designed to let readers dive deeply into their favorite topics.
