Business literature - Good books to read
 
Wich book did you read that you feel changed your way of thinking a little bit ?

Been reading a lot lately, anybody have anything that's not among the most popular books (not like poor dad rich dad or stuff that's bestseller)

Accounting for Dummies

i do not read bussiness literature. Prefere classics or science.

Hey Dre,
Maybe you could also share some of your reading list?
I just finished Ben Franklin's autobiography.

Try:
Freakonomics, Blink, Tipping Point
Although by the sounds of it I would be very surprised if you haven't already read them. I certainly found them very interesting and inspiring.

Next few books on my reading list:
Why We Buy (Underhill)
Ogilvy on Advertising
Good to Great
^ These 3 are probably the most relevant to your query. :)
Jung to Live By (Pascal)
The World is Flat
Basic Economics (Sowell)

Hope that helps.

I guess a little bit of both. Just something that can be good for a business person or somebody wanting to become one to read.
