Ask HN: Book recommendations based on a book's citations

1 pointsby nvitasabout 4 years ago
Is there a service&#x2F;app&#x2F;site that offers recommendations on other books based on the citations that are found in a book you liked?<p>I&#x27;ve started noticing that the books I have read and liked tend to mention authors of other books that I&#x27;ve read and liked. Tversky and Kahnemann come up in a lot of books as an example, I like to read non-fiction mostly. So that lead to new books by the two authors that I&#x27;ve enjoyed.<p>That got me thinking that you can possibly apply a type of pageRank algorithm to citations or toss the connections in a graph database and see the number of relationships between books (popularity based on citations) and work your way backwards from the books you liked to new books that are connected.<p>Wondering if you&#x27;ve ever come across something like that that you can recommend?

You can try Goodreads and follow some authors to learn about their taste.
