As mentioned in the Wall Street Journal's "MarketWatch", The Billionaire's Apprentice provides a complete account of the business lives of 21 extraordinary billionaires. This book is for people who want to learn the ins and outs of business by studying the examples of the best.

You will be inspired to aim big and, most importantly, to learn about business.
