I have decided to do a dead simple book review every Sunday. Some of this is to just share what I’m reading. Rather than go with some complex rating system a book will either be a thumbs up or a thumbs down. Thumbs up means I highly recommend reading the book. A thumbs down means read something else unless you have free time on your hands. I will then do a one or two sentence at most comment on the book.

Take Away: Some great data exists in this book, but there is less than one chapter of content, the rest is just stories proofing the content. Talent is Over Rated was a much better book on this subject.
