The book does start slow, however as you read through it you start thinking to yourself, "yup", "uh-huh", "no way".....and the likes.
Over the past 4 years I am certain that many of us have felt the lack of creative spark. The last 4 years have basically beat us into submission. We hold back, stifle ourselves and as much as we hate it...regress a bit.
I have been through a whole slew of self-doubt, self-loathing and depression. I attributed this to choosing a career with which I could use the skills I grew up learing. I attributed this to the fact that though our knowledge and skill runs the nation and the world we are treated like information 'janitors'.
Paul has given me new thoughts. New ideas, and though I new that I was not alone this book helped to make me believe it. This book has lifted me up a bit, and I would recommend it to anyone who has not read Paul's works in the past.
Anyone who may have grown up with computers and technology as a hobby/passion. Anyone who sacrificed other activities as a child because they happened to be that one kid that 'knew' how to use the computers at school (and helped the instructor when needed).
Great book. Pick it up if you can.
