Good summary, though reading the actual book may make it easier to internalize those principles. I figure that's similar to the 10,000-hour rule for becoming an expert in a field: the more time you spend internalizing something, the more likely you'll actually use what you just read.
- petercooper 17y agoThat's true, but summaries like these are very useful in two cases: 1) People who've already read the book (like me). Keeping big books around is a waste of space, but a list like this can bring the content of the book flooding back. 2) People who aren't going to buy the book or think it sounds lame, but who could be convinced by getting a taste of what it offers. I'd certainly advise reading the book, but I think there's still a ton of value in summaries like this.
