| 1. |  | Outliers: The Story of Success from Hachette Audio Price: $26.39 Customer Review:  Gladwell provides a novel perspective on why some have made brilliant successes of their careers. Unfortunately, it is long on anecdote and short on analysis of the ecofactors that govern people's lives. There are no lessons for anyone who wishes to emulate Bill Gates. Its still a matter of talent,... |

| 2. |  | Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World from Hachette Audio Price: $15.63 Customer Review:  I am truly sorry for those people who can't see the very real beauty of this book about the love of a woman for a cat. It is a heart-warming (unless you have no heart) story about life in an Iowa town and the real change that a stray kitten brought to the people of that town and then the world. Of... |

| 3. |  | The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on R the American Dream from RH Audio Price: $13.59 Customer Review: Seller: Product was in excellent condition, arrived quickly; great price. Book: Amazing that with everything else he has to do, he produced such a clear, well-written, thoughtful description of his life and philosophies. (I'm sure it's not ghost-written, not with his name on it.) I'm not... |

| 4. |  | Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Fight Terrorism and Build Nations One School at a Time from Tantor Media Price: $29.39 Customer Review: Everyone should read this book - its a life changer. However, even better, but for some reason being overlooked by the world, is "Leaving Microsoft to Change the World" by John Woods. I don't understand why 3 Cups is being promoted by booksellers and is being given such high profile, where John... |

| 5. |  | Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln from Simon & Schuster Audio Price: $26.37 Customer Review: Read this book if you know anything at all about Abraham Lincoln, or very little! The author has crafted a rich, detailed perspective of a man for all seasons, an American for all times. Our country longs for the depth and breath of his wisdom as much now as during the slice of history in which he... |

Love the fact that it's narrated by the author...this adds to the genuine feeling of the story. Have not seen the movie, but after the book, I am content with the tale I have been told. I recommend this for people of all ages...especially... |

| 8. |  | The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World from Tantor Media Price: $44.09 Customer Review: Have you ever wondered how banking started? How the South really lost the war? What really happened last year on Wall Street? This book explains the real reason behind nearly every historical event for the past 800 years. |

| 9. |  | The Tipping Point Audio from Hachette Audio Customer Review: Seller: good price; book was in excellent condition and arrived quickly. Book: On "The Rachel Maddow Show," the author explained his sociological/philosophical concepts clearly and most interestingly, so I bought this book---and it's written just as clearly and interestingly. The stories, as... |

| 10. |  | A Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity: A Memoir from Random House Audio Price: $21.09 Customer Review: This was the first of Bill O'Reilly's books I have read. I really thought it was a good story, although I couldn't relate to most of the stories because I am a lot younger than the baby boomer generation. Still, I found it to be a very good read and can't wait to read the rest of Bill's work. |

| 12. |  | In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto from Penguin Audio Customer Review: I bought the paper book and got halfway through it before buying the audio version -- after realizing I have more time to drive than to read. This is an excellent, concise and eminently sensible book about how the food scientists and food industry and even the government have sacrificed our natural... |

| 13. |  | The Secret (Unabridged, 4-CD Set) from Simon & Schuster Audio Price: $19.77 Customer Review: ...which is a fortune cookie with the words "Think positive" inscribed on it. If it's really a "Secret", the guy wouldn't go around promoting it. |

| 18. |  | Do the Right Thing: Inside the Movement That's Bringing Common Sense Back to America from Penguin Audio Price: $19.77 Customer Review: It is never easy to be objective in reviewing a book when its contents are about topics you fully agree with. However, I believe that the most important contribution relies in outlining openly many ideas I believe many people share, but sometimes are afraid to declare openly. Take for example the... |

| 19. |  | Alex & Me CD: How a Scientist and a Parrot Discovered a Hidden World of Animal Intelligence--and Formed a Deep Bond in the Process from HarperAudio Price: $21.27 Customer Review: How lucky we are that there are humans who dedicate their time/life to bridging the gaps to understanding the differences (and similarities) between species. My regret... is: not meeting Alex. I believe Irene's book is the next best thing. |

| 20. |  | The Post-American World from Simon & Schuster Audio Price: $26.37 Customer Review: An intelligent book that looks at trends in globalization, modernization of developing countries, and what it all means to the United States. Zakaria is clearly adept at gathering, processing, and synthesizing vast and seemingly unrelated bodies of information about a subject. I guess that is what... |

| 23. |  | The World Is Flat 3.0: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century from Macmillan Audio Price: $19.77 Customer Review:  A transparent attempt to justify the new colonialism. In the 16th century it was the great nations of Europe, in the 21st it is the multinational corporation. It is still exploitation of the haves by the have-nots, just a lot of new lipstick on the same old pig! |

The author combines his own story of batttling cancer along with excellent scientific evidence.

| 25. |  | The 4-Hour Work Week: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich from Blackstone Audio Inc. Price: $38.50 Customer Review: I lost my faith in the author only a few pages into the book. He grabbed my attention early on by saying he became the National Chinese kickboxing champion with only 4 weeks of preparation. I assumed this meant that he must have amazing ability and be able to learn new skills very fast. Being an... |

| 29. |  | Cesar's Way: The Natural, Everyday Guide to Understanding and Correcting Common Dog Problems from RH Audio Price: $18.45 Customer Review: His methods have worked very well for our pit bull terrier where positive reward training has failed. In response to those who wrote reviews on his outdated wolf psychology and his harsh tactics, I believe you don't actually know his methods. He never physically harms the dogs and is quite gentle... |

| 30. |  | The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court from Random House Audio Price: $21.09 Customer Review: I happen to pick up Jeffrey Toobin's The Nine just after completing Constitutional Law in law school. What a great companion this book was to the class. The book explores the stories behind many of the major cases learned in law school. It not succinctly summarizes the law, but far more interesting... |
