New from McKinsey & Company

Reading is more than a pastime. It’s also a good way to make sense of change, challenge assumptions, and evolve with purpose. That spirit is at the heart of McKinsey’s 2025 book recommendations, curated by Raju Narisetti, partner and leader, McKinsey Global Publishing. This year’s list features 90+ picks from 47 contributors, including CEOs and business leaders, editors and columnists, and university, think tank, and social-sector leaders—as well as some McKinsey colleagues. From AI and economics to memoir and fiction, these books explore the defining issues of our time—democracy, power, ethics, and beyond.
