The Official ENT 3003
Reading List
During the semester, you will be asked to complete three
reading reflections. These exercises may be found in the assignments list in
Canvas. For the first reading reflection, you are asked to select a
biography/autobiography of an entrepreneur (the first half of the list). For
the second reading reflection, you are asked to make a selection among the
general entrepreneurship / business / philosophy part of the list (the second
half of the list). For the third reading reflection, you may select any reading
from the list, which you have not already completed.
You are asked to read the whole book for these exercises and answer the questions included in
the exercises themselves. All of these books are either available in the
library (either in print or electronic version) or are available to you via
inter-library loan. In other words: Free! And free is always a good thing.
