Reading list

There is a truckload of personal-development books in the marketplace. New tomes hit the shelves every week. To mimic the lists I look askance at, here are three to consider, two of which have little to with personal development, per se.

• Zen and the Art of Poker, by Larry Phillips
• The Hero and the Blues, by Albert Murray
• Effortless Mastery, by Kenny Werner

At some point (soon, I hope), I want to talk about why these are good, and why I go back to them often.
