Some of the most influential business books are available for next to nothing (or even nothing) in the Amazon Kindle store.
For less than $5, you can gather timeless wisdom from classics like Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People," build your economic background with world-changing texts like John Maynard Keynes' "The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money," and get insight from ancient texts like Marcus Aurelius's "Meditations."
A few modern classics, like Susan Cain's "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking" are also available.
If you've got a Kindle and a few bucks to spare, it's time to get reading.
