Can anyone tell me the book titles that Dean mentioned during the opening ceremonies at the Championship this weekend? If I remember correctly there were two books.

Thanks!

I don't remember the books that Dean talked about but Woodie is talking a lot about "Thinking Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman.

"Thinking Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman. Yes, he had the book at the mentor breakfast and was attempting to give one out to every mentor.

Yes, thanks, that is one of the books I wanted. I think Dean commented on a link between wellness and FIRST and I want to reference it for a grant we are writing to build a practice field and collaboration area in southern MN for about 20 teams. Maybe it was just Woodie that mentioned book titles.

Dean might have mentioned Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's book "What Color is My World?" about Afro-American inventors.
