What Hacker News says
- The Portable MBA in Entrepreneurship is the best reference book for starting a business. Everything you would learn from an MBA condensed for entrepreneurs. I know most people here would say that all the old rules don't apply but taking the unconventional route isn't the best choice in every situation.
- I would definitely recommend the following books:
- How Breakthroughs Happen: The Surprising Truth About How Companies Innovate by Andrew Hargadon
- Micro ISV by Bob Walsh
- Smart and Get Things Done by Joel Spolsky
- 4 Hour Workweek by Tim Ferris
and here is one that I used in school that has great intro level information on a variety of topics.
