May was once again dominated by a slew of low-priced Kindle books including University of Berkshire Hathaway: 30 Years of Lessons Learned from Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger at the Annual Shareholders Meeting by Daniel Pecaut and Corey Wrenn and SuperFreakonomics: Global Cooling, Patriotic Prostitutes, and Why Suicide Bombers Should Buy Life Insurance by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner. In May we also took a look at some lessons learned from Sam Zell’s new memoir Am I Being Too Subtle?
