These are my favourite books of 2023:

| Lewis Mumford - The City in History: Its Origins, Its Transformations, and Its Prospects | Link | Great book, my favourite excerpts coming soon |
| Peter Turchin, Sergey A. Nefedov - Secular Cycles | Link | This book is about long-term cycles of societies, my favourite excerpts coming soon |
| Paul Morland - The Human Tide: How Population Shaped the Modern World | Link | favourite excerpts |
| Jared Diamond - Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies | Link | I read this one paper-based and did not make many notes. If you are interested in it, here are summaries: wiki, summary |
| Hannah Arendt- Thinking Without a Banister: Essays in Understanding, 1953-1975 | Link | Here are my favourite excerpts. Hannah Arendt is just incredible. I'll read more of her. |
| Yes, this list is strongly biased towards history, because history is awesome. Further mentions of good books are Lyn Alden's "Broken Money" (excerpts coming soon), and Farrington's and Meyers' "Bitcoin Is Venice" (excerpts here). | Ja, diese Liste ist geschichtslastig, weil Geschichte einfach toll ist. Weitere Erwähnungen wären Lyn Aldens "Broken Money" (Auszüge kommen bald) und Farringtons und Meyers "Bitcoin Is Venice" (Auszüge hier). | Sí, esta lista está fuertemente sesgada hacia la historia, porque la historia es impresionante.

I'm a bit of a history buff myself, so can see no issue whatsoever with your bias in that direction here 😀 The Paul Morland and Lewis Mumford books look especially appealing. Just added them to my list. And then I looked up Hannah Arendt and now my list is another two books longer! Oh, well, I wouldn't ever want to run out of options. Thanks for sharing your list.
Why is it that I completely relate to all these book memes? I guess every bibliophile act the same way 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
