I get asked for book recommendations less and less these days, all the information we need can be googled, can’t it?

But, some students do still yearn the old-fashioned treasure-trove of advice that can be found in a good book and so a while back I started a reading list.  It has grown and grown so I’ve divided it into sections and pulled out some of my absolute favs – here you go ….
