Two Great Business Books You Don't Know

The writing site Redroom.com highlights two business books on its list of "8 Great Books You Don't Know About."

One is "Traction," by the consultant and entrepreneur Gino Wickman, which advances the idea of the "Entrepreneurial Operating System," of which he says:

This book is not another silver bullet management book or flavor-of-themonth strategy. It contains no theory. It's based on real-world experience, practical wisdom, and timeless truths. More importantly, it works. Through hands-on experience, I have developed a practical but thorough method to help strengthen and re-energize your business.

The first chapter is here.

The other is the self-explanatory "The Commuter Marriage: Keep Your Relationship Close While You're Far Apart," by Tina Tessina.
Anybody read either of these obscure wonders? Chime in with your thoughts in comments.
