Any books recommended for ..?

HI,

Anyone recommends books to be more rounded in technology and business? Technology at first, such as gaining more information by reading and possibily apply some of it too. I want to read books so i get more knowledge.

When you go to school for example, they give you tone of stuff to research or write about.. well, i kinda wnat to do the same, but rather, get very well rounded like some people here at treehouse that not only know about programming, but all. Digital literacy we can say and more.

And self improving book i have read and thats changed the way i see some things, is Slight Edge, im on like 50page, but it told me alot, before i read another book, but this book is the real deal in my opinion.

Now, i though, if i read book every week for example about technology, by the time i go to University, most of the stuff iwll be easier, a lot easier, and im doing this for my self anyways, not for a paper. I want to go out there now, but its better to prepare my self.

I beleive my grammar and english will improve frmo reading books, but anyone have any advice what good books about technology mainly are there ?

Hi Konrad,

try "Just for Fun: The Story of an Accidental Revolutionary" of Linus Torvalds, the creator of the Linux kernel, co-written with David Diamond.

Happy reading coding-bro ...

For pdf books visit (http://it-ebooks.info/). Also you should visit the bookstore of the University to see what books are being used for classes.

Well, its not that i want to use the books that university have. I want to be a well rounded human in technology overall. So like i could read about hardware, i could read about networking and stuff i believe etc..

But thakn you anyways for the help. from all of you.
