If you had to recommend one of his recommendations, what would it be?
James Hunt
@neilcocker that is an awesome question!! There are so many great books there, and I've read maybe 10% of all his recommendations so far... I think his own book Purple Cow is amazing, and also The Pursuit of Wow! by Tom Peters. I read them both regularly. https://www.thisisbroken.co.uk/b... https://www.thisisbroken.co.uk/b...

@thetwopct I really should read The Purple Cow. I've had a second hand copy on my shelves for years, but just never got round to it!

@neilcocker 'The Dip'. A quick read with profound insights.
James Hunt
@ajonit yes! Great choice 👍

I think Seth Godin is amazing, so I put together this directory of all of his book recommendations. It was a labour of love for me to collate around 250 quotes, but I hope this is something really useful if you are looking for an amazing book to read. Would really love feedback, to hear if this is useful, or ideas for how you you think I could take the site further! Thanks!

@plainavertailu Thanks Paras!! 👍

Nice idea - the "Buy on Amazon" link at the bottom of each card should be a button instead.

@keeftronics thanks Keith, I think I fixed it! Give it a refresh :)
