BERLIN: The prominent German philosopher Juergen Habermas said Sunday he will not accept a high-priced literary award from the United Arab Emirates, reversing an earlier decision.

That was a wrong decision, which I correct hereby. In the statement, which his publisher Suhrkamp Verlag passed on to Spiegel Online, Habermas added I didn t sufficiently make clear to myself the very close connection of the institution, which awards these prizes in Abu Dhabi, with the existing political system there.

Subramanya SV, Co-founder and CEO, Fisdom s areas of reading interest are start-ups, politics, cricket and music. Almost all books fall into this category.

I also listened to several podcasts, he says. Atomic Habits really helped Subramanya in adding specific lifestyle habits to his daily life. “ Deep Work gave me clarity on the need for setting aside blocks of time for doing meaningful work without distractions of email, messages and social media. On weekdays, I typically read for half an hour before sleeping. On weekends, I try to read for a few hours, he says.
