Free Book (Kindle/nook) - Five Minutes on Mondays

Update: 12/19/11 Now free in the US Kindle store and from Barnes & Noble.

Five Minutes on Mondays: Finding Unexpected Purpose, Peace, and Fulfillment at Work (US/UK), by Alan Lurie, is a repeat freebie the Kindle store. So far, it is free for for UK customers only, but I expect it to be free for US customers and from Barnes & Noble sometime tomorrow morning.
Book Description
Imagine the leaders of one of New York City’s top real-estate firms coming together every Monday morning to hear…the moral and spiritual thoughts of a Rabbi.

Imagine them returning, week after week…coming to eagerly anticipate those five minutes as a moment of uncommon peace in the world’s most brutally competitive environment.

Wouldn’t you like to be a fly on the wall? To hear the paths Alan Lurie traced for his listeners, how he helped them bring together their spiritual and business lives, the sacred and the profane? Five Minutes on Mondays compiles these talks for the first time, sharing Lurie’s deep and profound inspiration on the challenges we all face—at work, and in life.

Lurie draws on millennia of philosophy, theology, and science to help us answer our deepest questions, comfort our deepest yearnings, and become better people—more connected to each other, and to the Greater Purpose.
