Here's your chance to read the latest business books and review them in The Miami Herald.

How it works

Business books columnist Richard Pachter selects a new book for the club every month. On a first-come, first-served basis, a limited number of members can get a free copy by e-mailing rap@richardpachter.com with the member's name, address and phone number. Readers who do not get a free book in the mail are invited to buy their own copies and send their reviews to the same e-mail address.

The next book

The Chaos Scenario; Bob Garfield, Stielstra Publishing, 306 pages. In this fascinating, terrifying, instructive and often hilarious book, Bob Garfield is not content to chronicle the ruinous disintegration of traditional media and marketing. Instead he travels to five continents for solutions. What does the club do?

Review books! When you receive your book, you have approximately three weeks to read and review it. Simply send your review back by e-mail to rap@richardpachter.com and Pachter will run excerpts of selected club members' reviews alongside his own.

A few restrictions

Books only will be sent to addresses in the continental United States. If you choose to join the Business Monday Book Club, you promise in good faith to review the book(s). Any member can be rejected at The Miami Herald's discretion. No promises, contracts or warranties are given or implied, and all reviews become property of The Miami Herald Media Co. Books are provided free to members as long as supplies last.
