One of my business instructors from the community college brings a different book into the classroom each week. The books are generally about management or leadership. She only brings in her favorites. This is the list from this semester, as it progresses. If I can find last semester's notebook, I will post that list as well.
i saw malcolm gladwell talking about blink for like an hour on cspan booktv a few months ago... really good stuff, specially the stuff about the ridiculousness of jurors being able to see the defendants in cases, I assume it's a section of the book.
I'm so glad I'm not the only nerd who watches Book TV!!
haha, I am such a nerd that I often stay up so late on weekends with nothing to do that I end up watching BookTV when the infomercials take over the rest of television.
