I’m a book-lover. Always have been, always will be. Told myself I’d never own a Kindle. Then hubby bought me a Kindle for Christmas. Resisted it at first . . . then the temptation to carry a lightweight reader on the bus back and forth to work became too much to resist. So, I load up my Kindle with free ebooks, some trashy, some not. And I often regret paying for a business-type book for my Kindle, instead of purchasing the paper version in which I can dog-ear the pages, scribble notes on it, and be able to read the tables and graphs (which are extremely hard to see on my Kindle).
These are some of my favorite business-book authors (I’ll update this periodically). I think you’ll enjoy these.
Purchasing the books from this link enables a bit of support to national SDA. http://ow.ly/wbuMP.
