When you get an email with a link in it be careful with it. Clicking a link requests a file sent to your computer. You don't want a bad file with something damaging in it. Here is a link of 58 book recommendations from TED speakers and it is one darned good list. I urge you to check it out. You will be glad you did.

Just copy and paste it in. It is legitimate.
The bibliography is a powerful and stimulating one. Each title is a live link to the book in various formats on Amazon. Each recommendation ends with the recommender's name and that is a link to the person's TED talk. In watching TED talks, most of the time, the audio is more important for meaning than the video. Most of the talks have a very good transcript of what is being said and they show where the speaker is throughout.
