Book Recommendation -> Future of Business

Post by seodevhead »

Hey guys... time for me to purchase a new book.. and this time... I don't know what to get.

I am looking for books that are in the business category that sort of predict where business is going in the future. I really liked 'The World is Flat' and thought it was great for learning what is happening in the global business world, something along those lines.... any recommendations?

P.S. I'll take any recommendations (non-fiction only please) even if it isn't business. Bottom line.. if I am going to read, I want to learn something useful.

'Wikinomics' is all the rage now - I haven't gotten far in it though. I had a beer with one of the authors about a week ago, he seemed really on the ball... more so than I expected. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a future of business book - lots of good concepts inside.

Anything Dilbert. He always knows where business is not going, so you can read and go in the opposite direction.

Holy crap... how did you manage that? I am about 25 pages into wikinomics and I can't put it down. I'd be stoked to have a beer with one of the authors! 8O
