This is an odd question for this site, but I figured I'd give it a shot. I was going through my late father's collection of business books (mostly on management) and I found, through a bit of research, that they're excellent, if not "essential" books in the field. I'd like to get into them, but I don't have any clue which one to start with. Any ideas?

Here's the list:
In Search Of Excellence
A Passion For Excellence
From Good to Great
Built To Last
The E Myth Revisited
Reengineering the Corporation
Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, Practices
The Corporate Mystic

there are a few others, such as The Prince and The Book of Five Rings, but these ar more historical. I'll get to them eventually. :)
