Annual book list 2023
Happy New Year! People who've been reading HeyReprotech for a while know that I like to start every new year with a list of books relevant to our field.
So many great books!
This year, I'm highlighting publications from 2022 and 2023 and only adding earlier books if I missed them in past years.
