The title of the book is the book itself. If you have read the title, you have read the book. Kudos to the author for rehashing the same thing again and again, page after page to drive down the concept.

Imagine believing this. It shows a lack of ethics in and of itself.

Ethical rules aren't universal

What ignorant drivel. The author doesn't believe this himself. Run far away, or watch CNN, it's free and more entertaining.

I got burned by a technology philosophy book like that years ago. Saw it on a late night show interview, seemed interesting. And it was just the same thing for 150 pages over and over.

that's the problem with most of the "self help" or business books these days - its a single concept made into a catchy phrase and stretched to 300 pages.

I did a book club with 42 lessons over the course of a few months and it got so redundant toward the end that we skipped a bunch of activities.

This is on Blinkist if you want the key concepts in 12 minutes. I got a year of Blinkist for free with my Amex I think that deal is somewhere on this site.

This loser blocked me on twitter. He's not anti-fragile as claimed.
