Michael E. Gerber

HarperCollins, 1995

The foundation of forward thinking. It just makes sense!
I'm only 1/2 way through this book, but have been taking notes along the way. E Myth delivers methodical, but practical sensibility of the big picture for business owners like me. Stop running into the same circles of bad habits and start working ON your business and not IN your business!

David Bornstein

Oxford University Press, USA, 2007

Single best book I have read in past five years
I read a lot, almost totally non-fiction, and for the past several years, after accidentally becoming a top Amazon reviewer on the strength of 300 reviews lifted from the annotated bibliographies of my first two books, I have been dedicated, as a hobby, to reading in the service of the public. My goal in life at the age of 55, what I learned from this book is called an "encore career," is to be ...

Morgan James Publishing, 2008

Best read in a long time!
I dont get much time to read these days but this was a must for me as it spoke of many people I had read about for two to three years and even bought products from. I took it with me on a recent business trip to Spain (where I am writing this from) and read it cover to cover in two days. Having bought and implemented Joel's higher priced products with great success in the past, this book at ...

The Knack: How Street-Smart Entrepreneurs Learn to Handle Whatever Comes Up

2 reviews
Norm Brodsky, Bo Burlingham

Portfolio Hardcover, 2008

Exceptional Resource for Entrepreneurs at Every Stage
Norm Brodsky has been a hero of mine for many years through his column in Inc. Magazine. His advice is a mixture of common sense and pragmatism -- ideas that make sense and can be used right away -- something that Brodsky and Burlingham provide in spades in their new book. The Knack isn't your typical guide to entrepreneurship. You're not going to learn about whether you should incorporate or ...

How to Get Rich: One of the World's Greatest Entrepreneurs Shares His Secrets

Felix Dennis

Portfolio Hardcover, 2008

Excellent
Felix Dennis is unique in that he does not necessarily fit the any stereotypical mold for a borderline billionaire. He is obviously a great writer in addition to owning a grip of publications. I enjoyed how he related his desires to sing as a musician when he was younger(his story about John Lennon telling him he had no original voice)... etc. He makes an effort to show an objective unbiased ...

WARNING! Don't Read This Unless You Are Already Rich!
I'm not recommending Dan's book. Especially to others in my field. Nope! I don't want them to know until AFTER I've had time to read it for a 3rd time and implement more changes in my business as a result!

Guy Kawasaki

Portfolio Hardcover, 2004

Invaluable reference tool for anyone considering a startup
This book is great for anyone who has been toying with the idea of starting their own business. I've been kicking around the idea of opening a pub in my city for a few years now. Since real estate has slowed so greatly in recent months (my current career) it has occurred to me that my passionate desire to open a pub should be more seriously explored. "The Art of the Start", although not ...

Personal Responsibility & Your Finances!
This is a fabulous book, not only for understanding how money works, but also getting you to set goals for yourself. If you were raised with a Depression-era mentality and you think money in the bank will make you feel safe, this is the book for you. Setting a goal of where you'd like to be financially and making it happen shouldn't be a number. It should be a life choice. I have been ...

From the first page, all the way through, I related to this book, and have profitted, ...

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2008

Clear, thought provoking, business altering!
Written in an engaging easy to read style; then you pour some coffee and the implications start to hit you. "If this, then..." and "Hey, we could make money ...". My favorite is "That's how they use the stuff I do! Wow!" Information is presented with an idea, how it has been applied, some visual clarification, and then more meat on the concepts. Chapters have questions at the end and more ...

Michael Masterson

Wiley, 2008

One of the Best Entrepreneurship Books I've Ever Read
Frankly, I am baffled that anyone could write a negative review of this book. Have those people actually read it? I am real-life entrepreneur with the real-life challenge of taking a business from nothing (when I started) to something great. Michael Masterson appealed to me for one very simple reason: he claims to have started in one fashion or another more than 20 companies, most of which ...
