|author= Kate Tojeiro
|title= The Art of Possible
|rating= 4
|genre= Business and Finance
|summary= As I recently wrote on this website, I started reading management manuals and self-improvement books at a time when my life was not going so great. Since then, it seems that they have continued to drop into my life just as I need them. I'm sure there's something to the science of "serendipity", which basically means we notice stuff more when it's what we need.

|summary=Back in the 20th century, companies tried to sell the same products to everyone for the same price, and needed to shift massive amounts of them if they wanted to make a lot of money. Today, there is the potential to get just as much money from customers by selling expensive items or services to a small number of big spenders. Of course, the trick is getting enough of these big spenders to discover what you're marketing in the first place - and one of the best ways to do that is by giving something away for free. But how do they then turn these freeloaders into superfans? Author and consultant Nicholas Lovell gives us an overview of the changing world, and advice on how to take advantage of it, in this fascinating book.

|title=The Year Without Pants: WordPress.Com and the Future of Work
|rating=4.5
|genre=Business and Finance
|summary=Sometimes you find a book which you simply can't ''not'' read. 'The Year Without Pants' was one of them. It's not what you're thinking (money's not ''that'' tight) - but the story of what happens when an old-school management guru goes back to the coal face to lead a team which had not had a leader before - to be accurate they'd not had teams - in a revolutionary company which takes remote working to the extreme. Members of Scott Berkun's team lived all over the world and worked for a company which had largely gone beyond email, had headquarters which were rarely used and had no rules. So, why did I ''have'' to read the book? Well, the company in question is Automattic which brings us WordPress, the open source software which powers fifty million websites. I run a website which uses open-source software - and I've been in business for the last seven and a half years with someone to whom I've never even spoken.
