I've spent 20 years building and leading digital products. Along the way I kept a personal reading list that grew far beyond the usual product management shelf - into economics, philosophy, evolutionary biology, cybernetics, Unix history. Last year I decided to turn it into something others could use. Every work has a short editorial note explaining why it matters and how it connects to the craft. The library is organized into thematic collections - curated paths through ideas that shaped how we think about technology, organizations, and the things we build. Some starting points if you're curious: - "From Coase to AI" traces how information economics led to the products we build today - "The Place That Was Named Before It Was Built" follows how cyberspace was imagined in literature before engineers made it real - "The Shape That Repeats" finds the same evolutionary patterns in biology, software, and organizations I'd love to know: what's one book or paper that changed how you think about building products? Always looking to expand the library.
