The Best Business Books Ever (Really!)
There's been a glaring pothole in the lists of all-time best business books and best business books ever, and new BNET blogger Stanley Bing filled it like non-union labor hoping to see street repair privatized. The truth is, all you really need to learn about business has been out there for centuries. We're not talking "The Wealth of Nations," either. Bing's list of the all-time best business books, cleverly disguised as a guide to How to Win Feuds and Intimidate People:
- The Old Testament
- The Art of War
- The Prince
- Moby Dick
- The Psychopathology of Everyday Life
