My Reading List for January and February of 2016 and a Personal Update

As announced in my last post, I have purchased a shelf-full of books at the Harvard Book Store Warehouse Sale, which means they will mostly populate my reading list for the month of January and February. I have decided to lump these two reading lists together as I have spent most of last month and this month busy with reading countless articles that pertain to my long-term personal interests.

This is where the personal update comes into hand: I have decided to spend the next couple of months researching a long term personal interest of mine and to put together something concrete over the first couple months of the year. If you are curious, writing a couple of serious articles is one of my resolutions for the exciting new year of 2016! I will try to summarize what I will write in these particular articles in maybe several couple brief blog posts. I will also try to post more of what I haven't posted onto this blog as some related information is on my old computer that is currently disabled. Let's not delay it anymore and I will be posting new information onto this blog in the coming month!

Jan, Feb 2016 Reading List:

Econ-Related Books:
1. The Selected Works of Joseph Stiglitz, Volume I and Volume II (Will definitely not finish at the end of this month as I will be reading and re-reading them in the coming months and years!)
2. Ronald Coase, Ning Wang - How China Became Capitalist
3. Jean Tirole - The Theory of Industrial Organization (Just like the Stiglitz Book: I will be actively referencing this book throughout the coming months and years and will probably also reference other similar books)

Non-Econ Related Books:
1. Martha Nussbaum - Frontiers of Justice: Disability, Nationality, Species Membership (The Tanner Lectures on Human Values)
2. Martha Nussbaum - Not for Profit: Why Democracy Needs the Humanities

I will also be catching up on previous backlogs of books that I have posted here and in other places and try to finish them as well.
