A good business book offers a ton of value for less than thirty dollars and a few hours of attention. And a great business book can change your life.
It's not easy to find those gems, though, in the endless stream of new book. Jack Covert and Todd Sattersten, with a combined thirty-five years in the business book industry, have made it their job to be that filter. They've taken on the ultimate challenge-to reread the classics, the bestsellers, and the sleepers and choose the 100 must relevant, most revealing, most useful book in business history.
Covert and Sattersten highlight important takeaways and put each book in context so that you can quickly find solutions to your current situation. At the end of each review, they recommend other books (both inside and outside their top 100) that you should read next. Sprinkled throughout are sidebars that take you beyond business books to movies, novels, and children's books.
You'll find a fresh look at classics such as Good to Great, The Essential Drucker, and The Tipping Point, as well as recommendations that might surprise you. For instance:
Turn to page 34 to find out why Dr. Seuss isn't just for kids.
Turn to page 70 for Winston Churchill's words of inspiration.
Turn to page 293 to learn Twyla Tharp's unique approach to creativity.
The 100 Best will help anyone, from entry-level worker to CEO, cut through the clutter and discover the business books that are truly worth their time.
