- Where should I start?
- Start with The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work. It's the only Gerber book we've reviewed, and it's the title that made the author's reputation — voted the number one business book by Inc. Magazine. It lays out the core idea behind all of Gerber's work, and it carries a 4.6/5 reader rating from 12992 Amazon ratings.
- What's their writing style?
- Based on The E-Myth Revisited, Gerber writes as a consultant rather than an academic — the book is structured as a practical guide that walks owners through a problem step by step. The approach is built around challenging a single flawed assumption (the entrepreneurial myth) and then showing what to do about it. It's direct, instructional business writing rather than theory.
- Books we've reviewed
- We've reviewed 1 book by Michael E. Gerber. The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work is the foundational business guide that challenges the assumption that technical skill equals business skill — it holds a 4.6/5 reader rating from 12992 Amazon ratings.
- What genre do they write?
- Gerber writes business nonfiction — The E-Myth Revisited falls in the Career & Leadership genre. Specifically, it's a small business guide focused on entrepreneurship: why most small businesses fail and what owners can do differently. Readers looking for fiction or narrative storytelling won't find that here.
- What should I read after The E-Myth Revisited?
- Within our coverage, The E-Myth Revisited is the only Gerber book we've reviewed, so we can't recommend a follow-up from our reviews yet. The author has also written The E-Myth Contractor: Why Most Contractors' Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About It, which applies the same framework to contractors' businesses — a natural next step if that's your trade.
