Google Scholar citations for Business Books
While browsing for new books to read I often check the book in Google Scholars. There I can check the number of citations a book has. And by going with the assumption that the more citations it has the better the book is I’ve made a list with Books and their Citations.
I searched for a list of most known/popular business books and I’ve found this one:
