I would also recommend
Winning by Jack Welch
The Success Principles: How to Get from Where You to Where You want to Be by Jack Canfield.

There is a bookshop called Shams at Emperor Plaza they are also good.

But be warned mostly only about 40% of material discussed in most books is useful the rest you take it with a pinch of salt.

@Anika, how i wish i could get that book. I have read alot about this 'investment adviser cum broker' who defrauded American BILLIONS OF DOLLARS (US not ZIM). And he was not even the main beneficiary!

For now, enjoy it, i'll look for it when i travel back to Nai!

I recommend Branson's "Losing my Virginity" & Malcolm Gladwell's "What the Dog Saw". Those should spark something in you.
Possession of material riches, without inner peace, is like dying of thirst while bathing in a lake.

Crossing the Chasm by Geoffrey Moore

Happy reading.

THE WORLD IS FLAT by Thomas Friedman. It's an essential read for everyone living in this day and age. Actually it should be made a set book in secondary schools.......

I read.... all and sundry...

right now i am reading "Edinburgh - A History of the City" by Michael Fry.... it is very interesting. But if you have no interest in anything "origins/the past/etc" dont bother. My interest was to find out why Scots are waaaayyy warmer people than their Brits counterparts... and things are falling into place! I am this close to understanding why Manuselesses behave the way they do!!!

I am also reading "Kwani" - a bit political but interesting all the same.

Just finished "Become a better you" by Joel Osteen - It took me too long!

@anit & Muhika - i will be on your list next.... they sound interesting.
