Poor Charlie's Almanack: The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T Munger 16 reviews Peter D. Kaufman
Donning Company Publishers, 2005
Poor Charlie's Almanack vs. Seeking Wisdom
+ review + Spectacular book. Five stars all around.
I'm not gonna praise Munger's wisdom again. Other reviewers did the job very well. After having read both books, Poor Charlie's Almanack and Seeking Wisdom, I highly recommend starting with Seeking Wisdom. It's shorter without lacking depth nor scope, but gives a great 'introduction' into Munger's ...

Reading People: How to Understand People and Predict Their Behavior- -Anytime, Anyplace 83 reviews Jo-Ellan Dimitrius, Mark C. Mazzarella
Ballantine Books, 1999
An interesting read
+ Treat this book like a text book which requires several readings
I'm a "human behavior junkie" so I read all of these types of books, This one is not too bad. It for sure has some interesting insights. I much prefer Lieberman's YOU CAN READ ANYONE. That book is very practical, and as is his style, not filled with any fluff or psycho-nonsense.

The good and the bad
+ Strengths review
The book is very interesting and very effective. The internet test is very accurate. Nevertheless each strength profile should be discussed more in depth. Let's say you get an idea of who you are but you would like to get more of it. Anyway, the price is worth the stuff you find in the book!
