Tyler Cowen’s Productivity
Posted: November 28, 2018 Filed under: books Leave a commentHere is Tyler Cowen’s list of the best non-fiction books of 2018.
I take eight where the Amazon link is easily clickable and find the page count, coming up with an average of 461 pages.
Let’s discount the two books written by colleagues and the one book TC wrote himself. That leaves us with 19 books, x 461 pages= 8,759 pages of books / 365 = TC is reading 24 pages of nonfiction on average every single day.
But remember, these are just the BEST books he’s picking. Let’s say for every one book he picks, there’s one he doesn’t. Call it 50 pages of nonfiction a day.
TC also picked eight fiction books, one of which is 1160 pages.
In addition to a busy travel schedule, college professor, prolific blogger, interviewer, husband, etc.
Impressed!
