The Alchemist<\/a>\"\" by Paulo Coelho
\nI first borrowed a copy of the Alchemist in 1996 while backpacking in Australia and devoured it in a single day. I hated to return it.

The Radical Leap: A Personal Lesson in Extreme Leadership<\/a>\"\" by Steve Farber
\nThis is a great short read about leadership. First read in 2004, I have taken the time to re-read it about once per year and see how I measure up.<\/p>\n
