Default Corporate Pilot Books?

Are there any good books on becoming a corporate pilot? I think I saw one on Sporty's but don't remember. Thanks for any help you can give me.

I bought a book a couple years ago when i was 14 called "Professional Pilot Career Guide" by Robert P. Mark. I thought he did a great job talking about cost, training, and various ways to becoming an airline, corporate, or frieght pilot. I would highly recommend it, it was a great book!

the only one i have is a book on Corp aircraft.

I have the thinking that there is no better way to find out info about the industry than talking with those that are in it and as such i have never purchased one of those "how to become" books. By the time they generally reach market they are a year plus old in information and with how quickly things in aviation change, that information can generally be more hurtful than helpful these days.
