"The Amber Tsunami The day London was drowned by a wave of beer" recounts the London Beer Flood of 1814. At the Meux & Cos Horse Shoe Brewery, a massive iron hoop on a fermentation vat snapped. The vat burst, releasing 1.4 million liters (320,000 gallons) of porter ale. The force was so great it smashed through the brewery walls.Historian Thomas Brew details the tragedy in the St. Giles rookery (slum) behind the brewery. The 15-foot wave of beer destroyed two houses and killed eight people, mostly women and children attending a wake in a basement."The Amber Tsunami" explores the legal aftermath, where the disaster was ruled an "Act of God," leaving the victims without compensation. It is a grim reminder of the lack of regulation in the industrial age, where even a brewery could become a source of mass destruction.

"The Cobra Bounty How paying for dead snakes created more snakes" is the definitive book on the "Cobra Effect." The story is legendary: The British colonial government in Delhi was worried about the number of venomous cobras. To solve the problem, they offered a cash bounty for every dead cobra skin brought in. Initially, the snake population dropped.Economist Nikhil Scale explains the twist: Entrepreneurial locals began breeding cobras in their homes just to kill them and collect the money. When the government realized this and canceled the program, the breeders released their now-worthless snakes into the wild, tripling the original population."The Cobra Bounty" explores how well-intentioned policies often backfire due to perverse incentives. It applies this logic to modern examples, from paying teachers for test scores (cheating) to paying for trash collection (illegal dumping). A masterclass in second-order thinking.

"The Coldest Merchant The man who taught the world to buy frozen water" tells the improbable story of Frederic Tudor, the "Ice King." In the early 1800s, ice was something New England farmers cursed in winter. Tudor saw it as a product. He had the insane idea to cut ice from Massachusetts ponds, pack it in sawdust, and ship it to the tropical heat of the Caribbean and India.Historian Samuel Frost chronicles Tudors decades of failure. People laughed at him, his ice melted, and he went to debtors prison. But he persisted, eventually creating the ice industry. He didnt just sell ice; he had to teach bartenders how to make cold drinks and doctors how to use it for fever, creating a market where none existed."The Coldest Merchant" is a business adventure about creating value from nothing. It shows how one stubborn mans obsession changed global diet and medicine, laying the groundwork for the modern refrigerator.

We make thousands of decisions every day, usually driven by immediate needs or fears. In "The Backward View," psychologist Sarah Prentiss proposes a different metric: the perspective of your 80-year-old self. Prentiss formalizes the "Regret Minimization Framework," popularized by Jeff Bezos, into a comprehensive psychological tool for life planning.Drawing on interviews with elderly hospice patients and behavioral science research on "anticipatory regret," Prentiss shows that people rarely regret the things they tried and failed at; they regret the inactionsthe words not spoken, the businesses not started, the trips not taken.The book teaches readers how to project themselves into the future to bypass current anxieties. It offers exercises to distinguish between "process regret" (I made a mistake) and "outcome regret" (it didnt work out), arguing that only the former matters. "The Backward View" is a guide to living with intentionality, ensuring that when you reach the end of the tape, you like the movie you just watched.

"The Dog in the Fox The experiment that replayed 10,000 years of evolution" details the most famous experiment in the history of genetics. In 1959, Soviet scientist Dmitry Belyaev started a secret farm in Siberia to domesticate silver foxes. His method was simple: He bred only the foxes that were least afraid of humans.Science writer Elena Furr describes the astonishing results. Within just a few generations, the aggressive foxes didnt just become friendly; they changed physically. They developed floppy ears, curly tails, and spotted coatstraits associated with dogs. Belyaev discovered "Domestication Syndrome," proving that selecting for behavior (tameness) accidentally drags along physical changes."The Dog in the Fox" is a window into our own past. It explains how the wolf became the dog and suggests that humans may have "self-domesticated" in the exact same way, trading aggression for cooperation and changing our own biology in the process.

Simplicity, mindfulness, tranquility, attention to detail all these elements of Japanese philosophy are nor only reflected in the famous tea ceremony but also in kaiseki cuisine.Why do the pretty Japanese wagashi sweets taste like dusty sugar, why do the tea bowls have dents, why does the soup taste like nothing? Malte Hartig, chef and philosopher, is puzzled when he tries Japans famous haute cuisine kaiseki for the first time. Neither his Western philosophical approach nor his European culinary training can help him decipher kaiseki. But then he finds a way in through Zen Buddhism and the famous tea ceremony. And with them, he encounters fundamental wisdom and a refreshing attitude, not only towards food, but also towards life.Malte Hartig takes us on his journey and guides us through a complete kaiseki menu and the experiences he had with it. It begins with the tea itself, continues with the hosts preparations, the guests knowledge, and the making of the tea bowl, and ends with the various dishes. You learn interesting facts and stories about all the elements that have accumulated over thousands of years of tradition: why a fish called hamo plays such an important role, what is special about growing bamboo shoots, and what rice has to do with Japanese identity. And you understand why Japan, the mentality of its inhabitants, and kaiseki cuisine have become so popular in recent years.
