Anatomy of Inflation: Money, Policy, and History Inflation is both a price phenomenon and a narrative shaped by money, policy, and history; this list focuses on how inflation forms, how it is measured, how it transmits through central banks and the financial system, and why it has repeatedly run out of control. After the Turing Machine: Ten Coordinates in the History of AI This reading list is themed “How AI moved from the idea of computability to the era of large models.” The selection criterion is to provide historical coordinates, key turning points, or stage judgments, rather than a general introduction to technical terms. The first part returns to the Turing machine, early computers, and cybernetics, addressing the intellectual and engineering prerequisites for “why intelligent machines could emerge.” The second part enters artificial intelligence studies Shrinking the World: Ten Literary Sanctuaries A three-part reading list of bookstores, nature, and everyday essays that offers textual retreats rather than quick psychological fixes. Noise Reduction and Reconstruction: Knowledge Foundations in the Age of Fragmentation Information pours in from all sides; what is truly scarce is no longer access but filtering and construction. Grounding Ideals: Ten Lessons on Soul and Reality This reading list is organized around “a realistic guide for idealists.” The selection criterion is neither empty motivational talk nor diluting ideals into worldliness, but whether a book can offer both spiritual steadiness and practical methods. The list is divided into three parts: the first recalibrates the relationship between ideals and experience, helping readers turn conviction into testable judgments and actions; the second draws on literary narrative
