Rated Abolish Silicon Valley: How to Liberate Technology from Capitalism 8/10

Rated Het grote gevecht 8/10

This book discusses shareholders, legal entities, mergers and markets, but despite that, it reads like a thriller. It reconstructs how the CEO of Unilever put sustainability on the corporate agenda, mixing big business with idealism. I'm impressed by the work that must have gone into this book, the historical accounts are very detailed and give lots of some behind the scenes context (still not sure if I follow the logic of big businesses, but that's probably me).

Rated The Good Immigrant 8/10

Great collection of essays written by (children of) immigrants into the UK. Articulates well what it is like to live between cultures, prove yourself more than others have to and tiringly deal with what's essentially a misguided lack of trust. Witty, funny and moving stories, some appealed more to me than others, overall an excellent read.
