Welcome to another episode of The Tim Ferriss Show, where it is my job to sit down with world-class performers of all different types\\u2014from startup founders and investors to chess champions to Olympic athletes. This episode, however, is an experiment and part of a shorter series I\\u2019m doing called \\u201cBooks I\\u2019ve Loved.\\u201d I\\u2019ve invited some amazing past guests, close friends, and new faces to share their favorite books\\u2014the books that have influenced them, changed them, and transformed them for the better. I hope you pick up one or two new mentors \\u2014 in the form of books \\u2014 from this new series and apply the lessons in your own life.
To kick things off, here are four of my recommendations, which I had originally included in the back of The 4-Hour Workweek. I called them \\u201cThe Fundamental Four.\\u201d
Please enjoy!
