| This upload is a continuation of "The 'Unofficial' Big Book-Sharing Project" I will be sharing a number of high-quality business related books in the near future from my personal collection-- many that I was surprised that we did not have deposited here in The Vault already. This project is my personal way of giving a bit back to the Vault community which has helped me so much.  Click the link below for a full list of current project results: http://thevault.bz/browse.php?incldead=0&search=%22Big+B... These uploads will not be exclusives, but know that a good many of these books are now nearly impossible to find elsewhere for various reasons (such as recent shutdowns of a number of trackers and cyberlockers across the web). Lesson: Always snatch good stuff while you can, as it may be gone tomorrow!  I hope you enjoy these books, learn tons from them, and translate that new knowledge into profits! Please comment if you've read the book and have anything positive or negative to say. Oh, and "thanks" are always appreciated. |
