BusinessWeek Best Sellers from May 2008

The BusinessWeek Best Seller list for May 2008 is now available online at businessweek.com. (It typically takes a month to gather sales data from all retailers and distributors and then tabulate the list.) No. 1 on the list is StrengthsFinder 2.0 by Tom Rath (Gallup Press). As Hardy Green describes it, "The coming of summer has readers sticking with tried-and-true titles but also showing signs of interest in breaking developments, from the current economic mess to social networking. Have a look!" You can also view the list as a slideshow here:
