Sure, if you want a book that's really unconventional, I like "How to Get Rich" by Felix Dennis. He was worth something like $500 million when he wrote it, a college dropout--probably someone you've never heard of, but you've likely heard of Maxim magazine, which he founded.
Not only does it have a lot of excellent business advice, but he's also a pretty hilarious writer.
More recently, I enjoyed Dan Lyons' skewering of Silicon Valley culture with "Disrupted" (which just came out and has been getting a lot of press.) I didn't agree with everything he said, but it was a great read nonetheless.
