This book is about brevity in words, but the book is 199 pages long. The authors should practice what they preach & simplify their book into a pamphlet of 1 to 4 pages. I'm partly joking here.

Could have just said, "199 pages is too long for a book on brevity." 😃

Haha. How about, "Book on brevity should be a pamphlet," or "Book on brevity is an oxymoron"? Hehe.

However, I'm actually not an acolyte of brevity in words. I think dumbing down everything into 10 or less words is a bad idea. The more valuable ideas & skills require years of learning, practice, trial & error, & constant improvements. This is true for cooking, construction, math, science, engineering, sports, social skills, public speaking, etc. I do believe in efficiency.

Unfortunately, the blowhards most in need of this won't ever read it.
