		<description>The Cranky Product Manager also recommends the two following books which are more inspirational and philosophical in nature, where the PMDR is more instructive.  1) &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0981690408?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=thecraproman-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0981690408&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Inspired: How To Create Products Customers Love&lt;/a&gt;, by Marty Cagan, and 2) &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1439216061?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=thecraproman-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1439216061&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;The Art of Product Management&lt;/a&gt; by Rich Mirnov.

Also, the CPM is always a big fan of Geoffrey Moore&#039;s product lifecycle strategy classics &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060517123?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=thecraproman-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0060517123&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Crossing the Chasm&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060745819?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=thecraproman-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0060745819&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Inside the Tornado&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not a Product Manager yet, although I&#039;m trying to become one, and I learned a great deal about what would be expected of me and ways I could improve my skills while in my current position by reading this book. And, yes, I did read it cover to cover, although I don&#039;t recommend that approach. It&#039;s not that it&#039;s difficult to read, all the info is very well presented, there&#039;s just so much of it!</description>
