4. Playing With Reality by Kelly Clancy – A unique look into the intersection of science and creativity. Clancy examines how our imagination and creative endeavors shape the way we understand the world.
5. Make It Stick by Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, and Mark A. McDaniel – This one is all about learning strategies based on cognitive science. I’m excited to apply their insights into memory retention and learning strategies for lifelong learning.
