I've assembled a list of some books that I've read or have heard are worth reading. Some, such as The Warden, are remotely linked to business but they have insights that can be applied to the workplace. The asterisk means I've read it. (All of the ones that I've read, I recommend.) I'm sure I've missed some good ones. Let me know.
