NCF's mission is to drive the policy debate on the important emerging issues by formulating arguments, developing options, and influencing thinking in an effort to move the American business agenda forward. As part of that mission NCF consulted with Foundation Fellows, industry specialists, and Chamber staff to create a list of books that both advance our agenda and challenge our thinking.

In conjunction with the 2008 Books That Drive the Debate, NCF has launched the Authors' Series. With the Authors' Series, NCF invites authors from the Books That Drive the Debate selection to discuss their book or topics relating to their book in an open forum. The forum can be in the form of a webinar, conference call, or on-site event.
