Management & Leadership
Review:Although this book was required for my intro MBA class, I would highly recommend this as a casual read for those business people who want to improve their organizations. Senge's concepts change your way of thinking, and make you look at the world a little different. Plus it was extremely affordable at only $17. I will read this book again. And probably again.

Review:I was intrigued by this book because in my career field (fitness and nutrition) there are a lot of "obvious" things people think they know are true when in actuality they're not at all. Saturated fat will clog your arteries and give you a heart attack. You must eat "healthy" whole grains in your diet. Red meat will cause cancer. You must exercise for an hour a day.

A must read for anyone beginning to delve into predictive analytics and computer science at large. Read more

Review:Shawn Achor is a brilliant guy. His research and work hold both an insightful and refreshing view of the world. I'm a fairly optomistic and hopeful person. His book provided me with an even greater roadmap to a more productive and positive way of life, both at home and in the workplace. Shawn's teachings have inspired me to work on being a "positive genius". There has already been some very real differences in my family life. I'd recommend this book to everyone. It can only improve your life. M... Read more
