Greetings from India, working in a market research company, and believe me, most of the days, I just want to be get out of here…I am not enjoying working any more, with the same kind of disciplined work (if I must say). I am just fed up of it. Whenever I have free time (most of the time I am free) . I love to read blogs, and I came across yours.
So, may be some day, I will quit, and will do all the things that I wanted to do. And in this process may be I will also able to fulfill my dream…

I read all but the Denny Hatch one… and just ordered it :) I love discovering new books. Thanks for the list.

For some reason, I seem to be the only one who thinks the Robert Collier Letter Book is overrated. At some point I’m going to have to pull it out and read it again… I just don’t get the fuss.

Also worth mentioning:

Joe Sugarman’s Copywriters Handbook

Ben Suarez 7 Steps to Financial Freedom (one of the best I’ve read that helped me understand the math behind marketing)

Positioning By Jack Trout and Al Reis
