101 Things I Learned In Business School

I am a big fan of the Things I learned series and often keep going back to the Archicture School Edition. I just noticed that they now have one out with the following title: 101 Things I Learned In Business School.

(How much do I love Kindle? With the click of a button the book appeared on my iPad. With the exception of beautiful art/photography books, I have no interest in purchasing ‘real’ books anymore. You?)

    Oh, the beauty of a printed book (not only art books) can’t be beat by electronic devices. My husband is a librarian and I love visiting him at work and perusing the bookshelves. There is nothing better than the comforting smell of a printed book, opening it up and flipping through the pages.

    As convenient as they can be. Electronic prints can never replace the traditional prints.

    I think the senses of touch and smell are as important.

    If all the formats would be open, “All Hail to the Kindle” or whatever reader.
    But as long as Amazon / Apple are keeping the lid on them.. Why buy something you can not sell? Or lend?
    They are not selling it to you in the OLD WORLD SENSE.
    Its more a “you can use it until we decide to change something”.

    And a paper books is here, in my house and I can keep it until the zombies come and destroy everything.

    Kindle works for me most of the time. It delivers in a minute! Here in India it takes Amazon 5-6 weeks to deliver. (Now where are the books I ordered in June?)

    My wife however prefers paper so we buy a few books online. I hate paper I can read on computer screen as well or even on iPhone screen. Am going to buy an iPad soon (not yet available here – Apple is sleeping!)

    Never a Kindle, or any other e-book, for me! Hail to paper and typography as it was meant to be seen and smelled. Reading is as much a mental pleasure as it is a sensory one :)

    no no no! not to the book (yes yes yes) but to only getting e-books. think about the fave childhood moments, the sound of the turn of the page, knowing what’s coming next, the smell of old books, the crispness of page of new…
    real books for me, please.

    I would normally agree, except I love the Archicture School Edition in print. It’s a cute little book, beautifully bound.

    I believe they have a “culinary school” edition too.

    Yes, great … unless you live in Switzerland (or anywhere else in Europe)!

    Here, Amazon just tells us: “this title is not available in your region”!
