Almost done...
I first encountered Milton Friedman in business school (for you econ folks there, sorry, but my undergrad was psychology) and I was struck by his statements against corporate social responsibility. Can you say tax-deductible?
Anyhoo, the subject I was most bored with in high school and college only made sense in business school, when I was already an employee and very much in the thick of the Asian flu. IS-LM models provided the logic for what became GMA's and the BSP's policies in money supply, pump-priming, etc.
But what really got me interested was the concept of the free market. A few years later, I chanced upon this precious find at Book Sale.
A paltry thirty bucks. It was fate. Kismet. Pre-determined. God willed it.
Commies should get a copy.

Friedman! A classic!
You should watch Syriana (great movie featuring George Clooney). There's a scene where Friedman's idea on corruption was quoted.
The IS-LM/Mundell-Fleming framework, one of my favorite topics in undergrad economics.
