In the Sunday Book Review, I consider books that interest the compliance professional, the business executive, or anyone curious. It could be books about business, compliance, history, leadership, current events, or anything else that might interest me. In today’s edition of the Sunday Book Review, I return to look at some new books which caught my eye in the New Mind edition.
Today, new books from the Yale University Press:
· Roe by Mary Ziegler
· Mixed Signals by Uri Gneezy
· Life by Paul Ehrlich
· Tragic Mind by Robert Kaplan
