Essential Reading for MBAs

Here are a list of books that I found incredibly useful in my development as a business person. Keep in mind that I didn't have a business background coming into the MBA. These are perhaps especially helpful for those also making the transition into business. Also note that this is not meant to be a comprehensive list, just books that I thought would be great to recommend.
