[LM_NET] HIT: SEC: Request for Introduction to Business Novel

[Judy Crook <jcrook@GARCOSCHOOLS.ORG>]

My original request was for recommended novels of interest to a 9th or 10th grade 
business student to "provide thought and discussion" on a business topic.  The 
business teacher ultimately decided to purchase several copies of several different 
titles which were recommended, giving the students a choice of the novel they will 
read.  She really appreciated your suggestions.

These were the suggestions:

Ayn Rand books, such as _Atlas Shrugged_ and _Anthem_ (several suggestions)
_Animal Farm_ by George Orwell  
_Nickel and Dimed_ by Barbara Ehrenreich (2 suggestions)
_Babbitt_ by Sinclair Lewis is classic about business.
_The Jungle_ by Upton Sinclair changed the food industry and government 
regulation of it.
_At the Margin_ by Marshall Jevons
_Feed_ by M.T. Anderson


Thanks!
