Good Books to Explore

#2


Welcome to the post that encourages readers to explore the below books, all of which I have read. For some books, I will humbly attempt to summarize them, so as to give you a gist of what you can expect when you decide to invest your time reading them.
Each book is written with a different purpose in mind, and for a different group of audiences.
Some are technical, some are fun and lightweight, while others are pure textbooks. I have also enlisted recommended books which I am yet to read.
Additionally, I've listed two videos I have watched umpteen times because they are crisp and clear in their explanation of their respective concepts.
