I was surprised when I did my MBA how they didn't cover anything to do with entrepreneurship... but then again it is a masters of business administration.

This is an alright list of books, but as other posters have said anyone following it will sorely miss out on practice experience.




Entrepreneurship is the application of everything else they teach - marketing, communication, finance, etc etc. I have a hard time believing it can be taught. You either have the drive to apply other topics in a risky way or you don’t. In the entrepreneurship courses I took in my MBA, the approach was nowhere near what I did in practice starting a business nor what any other entrepreneur I know did. But the rest of the classes were of value (mostly…)
