Books for business/econ personal statement

Which books do you recommend I read which are good for business/econ personal statements?

I can see maybe econ books but I can’t find any which have a mix of both and which will look good on my personal statement.

Any advice is appreciated!!

You don’t have to read books. You can watch online lectures, documentaries and ted talks, listen to podcasts, read blogs etc etc.

The point of talking about this stuff in your PS is to demonstrate that you’re interested enough in specific topics to find out more about them in your free time. So it’s important that you follow topics that you’re actually interested in. If you start researching topics covered within the degree courses you’re applying to and then just start finding out more about the bits you think sound interesting then you’ll have plenty to talk about in your PS.
