| 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.

from Simon & Schuster Audio
Price: $28.37
Customer Review:
I purchased this book since it has such high reviews on Amazon. Unfortunately, all the book provides are obsessive techniques on how to organize your tasks. Still, you would come up with them yourself anyway as they are all basic common sense.

I can't rave enough about this book. From cover to cover, I enjoyed reading about how people view choices and incentives and what kinds of forces exist that distract us from making sound decisions. It truly is a fascinating study into human psychology and its intersection with economics.
