The Most Human Human: What Artificial Intelligence Teaches Us About Being Alive
One concern I sometimes hear is that recognizing the parallels between people and computers might start to rob us of our humanity. Christian's first book, The Most Human Human, is the perfect antidote to that. Participating in a Turing test, where he had to convince the judges that he was not a computer, led Christian to reflect on how intelligent machines can help us come to recognize what it is that makes us human.

The Gardener and the Carpenter: What the New Science of Child Development Tells Us About the Relationship Between Parents and Children
One of the big ideas in the talk is that understanding the trade-off between exploration and exploitation can help us understand how our approach to decision-making should change as we age. Alison Gopnik's wonderful book explores this idea in more detail, making the argument that the very structure of human childhood is in part a consequence of navigating this trade-off.

Algorithms Unlocked
For people who want to learn more about algorithms, this book does a great job of translating an undergraduate curriculum in computer science into a form that somebody with a little bit of mathematical background can easily appreciate.

In Pursuit of the Traveling Salesman: Mathematics at the Limits of Computation
Focusing on one problem in particular, this book is a great illustration of how computer scientists tackle the hardest computational problems — using approximations, shortcuts and a lot of ingenuity.

Finite and Infinite Games
An inspiration for Algorithms to Live By, this book takes a single mathematical idea and then unpacks it into a manual for living a fulfilling life.
