It was fine, decent for reference. If you have thought or been exposed to leadership/practicing management, then this book will feel a bit basic / repetitive. If you are the junior or mid engineer thinking about the next steps to becoming a tech lead/EM then this might be a really good fit.
Finally a book I didn't want to put down! It misses on a few realism fronts, but a good story nonetheless.
Contender for one of my best reads of 2024. The book could be slightly shorter but it reads very quickly nonetheless. “A jack of all trades is a master of one, but oftentimes better than a master of one.” Oh how true this is. The absolute volume of people who made earth shattering discoveries is underserved by modern society and makes it seem like few exist when, in fact, a lot of different research, organizations, and people have discovered that generalization is the key to progress. Whether in sports, arts, or science or anything in between.
Fantastic pop science. Really fun to get excited about paleontology as an adult rather than as a kid.
Just when I thought that people can't possibly be betrayed this many times, the whole story comes around.
4.5 stars, would read again
