Chouinard's philosophy of building a company that genuinely puts the planet first. Part memoir, part manifesto — the kind of book that makes you question what a business is even for.
Past reads
Sacks's autobiography — motorcycles, weightlifting, patients, and a lifetime of restless curiosity. Warm, honest, and full of a particular kind of energy that's hard to put down.
A neurosurgeon diagnosed with terminal cancer reflects on what makes life worth living. Beautifully written and quietly devastating — one of the few books that genuinely changes how you think about time.
Nike's origin story, told with surprising candour about the chaos, debt, and near-disasters behind the brand. Less about strategy, more about stubbornness and the people who believed early.
Murakami on running as a practice, a meditation, and a metaphor for writing. Quiet and repetitive in exactly the right way — like a long run itself.
Netflix's founding story from the co-founder who left before it became enormous. Refreshingly honest about what was luck, what was instinct, and what was just trying things until one stuck.
The graphic novel that asked what would actually happen if people put on masks and fought crime. Dense, dark, and constructed with a precision that rewards rereading.
Sinclair's argument that ageing is a disease — and a treatable one. Half cutting-edge science, half provocation. Makes you reconsider assumptions you didn't know you had about getting old.
