The "player", written by Ian Banks in 1988, is a science fiction novel from the cycle "Culture". This work tells about what can happen if humanity conquers the Galaxy and finds fabulous wealth through superintellectual robots.

Zuckerberg is not a big fan of science fiction. According to him, the "Player" was chosen for reading in order to change the situation and to retreat from past habits. To this recommendation of the head of Facebook also joins the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX Ilon Mask, who marked the "Culture" of Banks.
