\"\"People consider Scott Santens an expert on the topic of basic income<\/strong><\/a> and so he is frequently asked for book recommendations. Because of that, he has decided to put together a comprehensive list on Medium which he will make a point of updating as new books are released and old books are discovered. If you don\u2019t see a book here and think it should be listed, please let him know so that he can add it.<\/p>\n

Optionally, if you wish to purchase one of these books, please consider using Amazon Smile which you can do by changing www.amazon.com in the url to smile.amazon.com. This will give a portion of the purchase to charity, and the charity I recommend is GiveDirectly<\/strong>\u00a0because\u00a0that will help support their historic 12 year long universal basic income experiment in West Africa<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Also, due to popular request, books of fiction that include basic income can be found at the end of this list. And if you\u2019re looking for academic papers to read instead, there\u2019s\u00a0Basic Income Studies<\/a>\u00a0which is a peer-reviewed journal, and here\u2019s\u00a0a great list of discussion papers on basicincome.org<\/a>\u00a0and also\u00a0usbig.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Note: List is ordered by release year chronological order<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
