Killing Sacred Cows: Overcoming the Financial Myths That Are Destroying Your Prosperity
Garrett B. Gunderson, Stephen Palmer

Greenleaf Book Group LLC, 2008

A Valuable Twist on Traditional Financial Thinking
I used to work in financial services; I left because I didn't believe in the concepts we were trained to share with others. Investing all of your extra cash in high risk/potentially high return instruments in response to your concern about possible future lack, often ...
  
  











  



  
The Five Dysfunctions of a Team: A Leadership Fable
Patrick M. Lencioni

Jossey-Bass, 2002

Best book I've read all year
I read a great number of titles on leadership, organizational development, and team building. This book, told as a fable, is a very quick read and will seem unlike any other book of this sort you've read. As you read it, you'll feel as though the author has been ...
  
  











  



  
Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time
Greg Mortenson, David Oliver Relin

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2007

Boring Title, Great Book
When my mother gave me this book to read I was a little scared of what I might find inside. The name, "Three Cups of Tea" didn't sound very exciting. The cover, showing three young girls studying, didn't look very appealing. And the subtitle, "One Man's Mission to ...
  
  











  



  
The Night of the Gun: A Reporter Investigates the Darkest Story of his Life--His Own
David Carr

Simon & Schuster, 2008

If the story sounds familiar, the approach will not. The result is excellent.
It sounds like books you've read before; the true stories of a junkie's drug-addled existence, the downward spiral, the damage to friends, family and career. Like many of those books, this one too is written by the former junkie himself. But this book is not like the ...

The Things They Carried
Tim O'Brien

Broadway, 1998

TIMELESS
"First Lieutenant Jimmy Cross carried letters from a girl named Martha . . . ." And I will always carry this book in my heart and mind. It is unforgettable.
  
  











  



  
Things Fall Apart: A Novel
Chinua Achebe

Anchor, 1994

The foundation for modern African literature
I was surprised and disappointed in some of the incredibly harsh reviews of this book. Since I've read a decent amount of African literature (not a vast amount), my first thoughts are that "Things Fall Apart" isn't superior to some of those novels. However, it is ...
  
  











  



  
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
Mary Ann Shaffer, Annie Barrows

The Dial Press, 2008

What a pleasant surprise!
I received this book free of charge through the Amazon Vine Program. To be honest, it is a book I never would have bought on my own. The title is certainly a bit strange and I'd never read a book in the epistolary style. Much to my great surprise, I ended up loving ...
  
  











  



  
The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About It
Michael E. Gerber

HarperCollins, 1995

The answer to success or failure in business
I first read The E Myth Revisited as I was preparing a local policy and procedure manual for my second small business, a national franchise. As I read the book a light bulb went off - in fact several light bulbs flashed - and suddenly I realized why small business ...
  
  











  



  
Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, a Man Who Would Cure the World
Tracy Kidder

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2004

Another living hero
Paul Farmer is to Haiti what Greg Mortenson is to Pakistan. These are the people who best represent the American citizens to the world and I'm sure there are so many out there who do great sacrifice in their personal lives to help others. Besides being a well-told ...

This is the roadmap and field book for developing and maintaining healthy and unselfish interactions with others. What does another person need to hear in the first 30-seconds to get their attention? Why should you see a situation from the other person's point of view ...
  
  











  



  
Mere Christianity
C. S. Lewis

HarperOne, 2001

Mere Christianity
I've been a Christian basically all my life, and had up to this point, never read anything by C. S. Lewis. Now having read "Mere Christianity", I'm completely baffled as to why I waited so long. C. S. Lewis' style is very conversational, intelligent, and spiritually ...
  
  











  



  
Man's Search for Meaning
Viktor E. Frankl

Beacon Press, 2006

A masterpiece of great dignity
While I have never really warmed up to the second part of Frankl's book, the "Experiences in a Concentration Camp" section has to be one of the finest examinations of meaning under terrible circumstances ever written. Frankl is insightful, unpretentious, incisive, ...
