Many books helped me, including on my professional life. But just to stay around the topics of seduction and self help:
* Manual of Seduction, by Franco. This is another Franco, not ours.
* The Rational Male, by Rollo Tommassi
* Sperm Wars, by Robin Baker
The first two, although they won't say anything fundamentally different from GC, bring a fresh perspective on the same topics. The same things, explained differently, by different guys, bring seduction topics into a new light and help you gain a deeper understanding of the subject matters. The third book depicts human sexuality (including women's hypergamy, among others) in a very interesting (and surprising) way.
In addition to these, I always have an eye on BlackDragon's blog. His main topic is non monogamous relationships. Anyone who read my posts know that I am a big advocate of these. BlackDragon has been an inspiration on this.
In addition, on the topics of health and building muscle:
The new Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding, by Arnold Schwarzenegger. It is a very comprehensive book that will help you create, develop and complement your regular workout routine. It explains a vast range of exercises, the right and wrong way of doing them, what muscles they will help develop. It also explains a number of principles to make your routine more efficient.
Also, I am a regular reader of Rogue Health and Fitness. The author advocates intermittent fasting, ketogenic diet, and weightlifting as a routine for daily life.
Cheers,
Seppuku
