Good to Great and the Social Sectors
Short and sweet -
This is a short book that addresses the main ideas of Good to Great, but directly addresses the principles' application to the social sectors.
Easy to read (but not too easy) and enjoyable. I felt like I got the basics from Good to Great without having read it. -

Good information, hard to read
-
This book is written by a British economist. As a creative person, it was hard to get through Caves's dry laboring ideas. My classmates agreed.
It is a staple in the arts management field. Like a right of passage. -

David Sedaris's humor is quite unique. It's entirely possible that one person could read this and find it slightly amusing, while another cries with laughter every other page.
I've discovered via conversations with friends that listening to David on NPR's This American Life really helps to understand his style. Listening to his voice, patters of emphasis, and overall stoic view enables one to hear his voice narrating the entire book.
I gave this one 3 stars (ratings are stupid, but I do it anyway), but I am looking forward to reading his other books with 4 stars of anticipation.
I don't know if his books are translated into other languages, but I have a feeling that the humor would be mostly lost in translation.
