FORTUNE: THE GREATEST BUSINESS DECISIONS OF ALL TIME
EDITORS OF FORTUNE MAGAZINE
Decisions equal success - nothing happens until one is made. Businesses make millions of decisions every day.
But once in a great while a leader makes a truly game-changing decision that shifts not only the strategy of a
single company but how everyone does business. These big decisions are counter intuitive - they go against the
conventional wisdom. In hindsight, taking a different direction may seem easy, but these bet-the-company moves
involve drama, doubt and high tension. What made Apple's board bring back Steve Jobs to the company? How
did J&J decide to recall every bottle of Tylenol after a poisoning scare that only involved a small batch of the
drug? What made Henry Ford decide to double the wages of his auto workers and how did that change the
American economy for the next century?

FOUNDATION: THE HISTORY OF ENGLAND, VOLUME ONE
ACKROYD, PETER
The first in an extraordinary six-volume history, Foundation takes the reader from the primeval forests of
England's prehistory to the death, in 1509, of the first Tudor king, Henry VII. Peter Ackroyd guides readers from
the building of Stonehenge to the founding of the two great glories of medieval England: common law and the
cathedrals. He shows glimpses of England's most distant past— a Neolithic stirrup found in a grave, a Roman
fort, a Saxon tomb, a medieval manor house—and describes in rich prose the successive waves of invaders who
made England English, despite being themselves Roman, Viking, Saxon, or Norman French.
