About this title

Review:

There is no better way to understand the path to business and investment success than to ask notable achievers to describe the routes that proved effective for them. Because most of us won't have that opportunity, it's fortunate that Forbes senior editor Gretchen Morgenson has interviewed visionaries in management (Andrew Grove), entrepreneurship (Fred Smith), investing (Peter Lynch), marketing (Pleasant Rowland), and finance (Paul Volcker). She shares those conversations in Forbes Great Minds of Business. The book is also available in an audio version, which is particularly appealing because it includes the actual discussions.

From the Publisher:

An exclusive companion book to Forbes' magazine's first ever television project, "Great Minds of Business," to air on PBS this fall. Those profiled include Andrew Grove, CEO of Intel, Peter Lynch, Paul Volcker, Pleasant Rowland, founder and president of the American Girl Collection, and Fred Smith, founder and CEO of Federal Express.
