Many people share “essential” books to be read for business.  I have tweeted many of these articles as I come across them and may agree with a few of the selections.  Well, I decided it is my turn to spout off 10 books that I’ve found very useful regarding business and entrepreneurship. I will list them in no particular order:

- How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie

- Good to Great by Jim Collins

- Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand

- Bootstrap Business by Rich Christiansen and Ron Porter

- The E-Myth by Michael Gerber

- 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey

- Rich Dad Poor Dad & The Cashflow Quadrant by Robert Kiyosaki

- The Entrepreneur’s Manual by Richard White

- The Experience Economy by James Gilmore and Joseph Pine

These are just a sampling of books chosen by looking at my shelf as I write this.  Get them at the store here.  I enjoyed each one and feel that each contributed significantly to my understanding and opinions toward business, entrepreneurship, success, etc.  Some more than others.  I can say that I recommend any and all of them without hesitation.  Let me know what you think of any of these.

Also, what would you say is the most significant book you’ve read on business?
