What We're Saying
Posting the strategy + business list before the Thanksgiving break reminded me that we haven't seen quite as many "best of 2011" business lists at this point of year as we have in years past. Beside the Goldman Sachs/FT award and s+b's list, The only two I've seen have come from booksellers—Amazon and Hudson. Amazon's Best Books of 2011 were announced earlier this month.

Amazon's books editors have announced their "2011 Best Books of the Year So Far" list. I don't recall them putting out a mid-year list in the past, but it's a great idea and they've picked some very worthy titles. Their top ten in the Business & Investing category are: Onward: How Starbucks Fought for Its Life without Losing Its Soul by Howard Schultz, Rodale Press Enchantment: The Art of Changing Hearts, Minds, and Actions by Guy Kawasaki, Portfolio Tribal Leadership: Leveraging Natural Groups to Build a Thriving Organization by David Logan, John King & Halee Fischer-Wright, Harper Paperbacks (the paperback release of the authors' 2008 book) In The Plex: How Google Thinks, Works, and Shapes Our Lives by Steven Levy, Simon & Schuster Poke the Box by Seth Godin, The Domino Project - Powered by Amazon Disciplined Dreaming: A Proven System to Drive Breakthrough Creativity by Josh Linkner, Jossey-Bass We First: How Brands and Consumers Use Social Media to Build a Better World by Simon Mainwaring, Palgrave MacMillan The Thank You Economy by Gary Vaynerchuk, HarperBusiness Beyond Wealth: The Road Map to a Rich Life by Alexander Green, John Wiley & Sons Endgame: The End of the Debt Supercycle and How It Changes Everything by John Mauldin, John Wiley & Sons On that list, Disciplined Dreaming author Josh Linkner contributed a manifesto to the February issue of ChangeThis, and we have a manifesto from Simon Mainwaring coming on July 6.

Full Description
An instant bestseller that has now become a classic, Moonwalking with Einstein recounts Joshua Foer's yearlong quest to improve his memory under the tutelage of top "mental athletes." He draws on cutting-edge research, a surprising cultural history of remembering, and venerable tricks of the mentalist's trade to transform our understanding of human memory. From the United States Memory Championship to deep within the author's own mind, this is an electrifying work of journalism that reminds us that, in every way that matters, we are the sum of our memories.
