This is probably one of the most balanced and well written books. It is insightful, interesting, touching, well structured, easy to read, short, based on experience. Amazing work from authors. 👏

It's a must read for everyone as it challenges our world view and gives practical tools how to improve our thinking and decisions in order to be more effective in the modern society.

I also would like to highlight that authors don't go into extremes and only sell one side, but rather hold a balanced argument. I find it refreshing with the books I've read.
