Reading List
Bill Gates
Co-Founder, Microsoft; Co-Chair, Gates Foundation · Microsoft
Bill Gates co-founded Microsoft in 1975 and helped bring a computer to every desk and home before turning to full-time philanthropy through the Gates Foundation. A voracious reader, he publishes detailed book reviews and seasonal reading lists on his blog, Gates Notes, that regularly send titles up the bestseller charts. His recommendations lean toward big-idea nonfiction on science, history, health, and human progress, and few readers in the world carry more weight when they say a book is worth your time.
