    I am glad to see so many of the old favourites getting into the top 10. It would have been helpful to understand the selection criteria; I think the list could have been sub-divided into a number of the discrete areas on personal development as it is difficult to see how leadership gets in with some of the others.

      Julian, thats a good point. I didn’t explain much of where I was coming from. I made this list as part of an interview I did with Andrew James. I have now inserted a link to that interview with a better explanation! Thanks for the thought!
