Booklist for entrepreneurship course

  • 1.  Booklist for entrepreneurship course

    Posted 06-05-2007 22:54
    Hi:

    I am thinking of jettisoning the usual text in my class
    (Barringer/Ireland), in favor of a series of books, like an instructor in
    20th century history might do.

    The first one might be Founders at Work, by Jessica Livingston.

    If I were teaching the course 7 years ago, I might use Nudists on the Late
    Shift, but that now seems very dated.

    I would greatly appreciate any suggestions. Books from the last 4 or 5
    years would be best. Thank you.

    The course uses HBS cases, mostly, but extra background is needed.
