The Arbinger Institute
Berrett-Koehler Publishers, 2002
Go Beyond
I think I've read most of the top dozen or so best sellers on leadership. They all have wonderful advice. But there's now also a new kid on the block, a new book, that is probably the best-kept secret on leadership and HUMAN RELATIONS. It's a book called "Going Beyond ...

unSpun: Finding Facts in a World of Disinformation
Brooks Jackson, Kathleen Hall Jamieson
Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2007
Un Spun- Finding Facts
I loved the Book!
Great information for someone that wants to learn the political system.
Since there is so much propaganda out there, this was a great book to understanding some of it.
Short and to the point...not a big book...but long on fact finding.

What Happened: Inside the Bush White House and Washington's Culture of Deception
Scott McClellan
PublicAffairs, 2008
Fantastic Book
As someone who is left-leaning I tried to read this book without any preconceived notions. Mr. McLellan's book is an extremely well written history of what happened during his time working for George W. Bush. When there are facts to be presented, he presents them as ...
