Once I have a chance to read it I will write a small review on it.
Read it yet, Antonio?
Not yet but I will very soon.
For what it’s worth, I just finished reading it and I highly recommend it. It covers a lot in a short span, so in that sense it doesn’t go terribly deep into any particular subject, but it’s a great overview from the right perspective. For me, it validated a lot of things I already do and clued me in on many areas I hadn’t explored. In that sense it was pretty inspiring.
