I would add one more book to that list. I am currently reading "Billions of Entrepreneurs" by Tarun Khanna. I think it is a good read and gives a good perspective on the two emerging economies namely: India and China.
I read "The GOAL" a couple of months back and I found it so interesting that I read it in one day over a holiday. I think it is one of the best books I have ever read. It just shows:
"Commom sense is not so common afterall" although it is called common sense. I think it should be called the rarest sense!!!

About half way through now.. It is easily one of the best books I`ve read in a long time. I agree with a lot he has to say, that the MBA is Masters of Business Analysis and not a management degree when not brought into context. Its certainly made me thik about the benefits of doing one... e.g. I have no real interest in going into IB, and consulting isn`t a key career for me... yet it does seem like the MBA is geared towards these roles. Furthermore I`m more interested in hi-tech which the author claims the MBA is not much use... although in my case, my background in hi-tech should help.
Certainly, it`s made me more sure of which areas to concentrate on and which areas i won`t put as much effort in (Accounting.. ha ha ha)

Here are a few more in addition to those already mentioned, I'd recommend for the more investor focused set (notice that I like books that have the word "fool" in the title):
When Genius Failed -- story of the rise and fall of LTCM
Fooling Some of the People All of the Time -- David Einhorn's new book re his hedge fund's experience shorting a company with questionable accounting/management
Margin of Safety -- Seth Klarmin's out of print value investing guide
Fooled by Randomness -- Taleb's a bit too skeptical but I think makes many good points
Conspiracy of Fools -- Story of Enron, this was a fantastic read
By the way, would anybody recommend any of Soros' books?
