It's ok... but
Revisado: 06-21-19
The Comical attempt by the narrator to put eastern accents to some of the text is very irritating, but not as irritating as the reading of the references at the end of each sentence.
Overall ok - and a deep dive into cybercrime industry - but unfortunately the spoiled by the above.

The business book on Sustainability
Revisado: 11-23-15
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, great examples of real businesses both established and start-ups on how they approach sustainability - not a rambling on about climate change.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Green Giants?
The leadership aspect demonstrated by the case studies - key iconoclastic CEO's that take this on as how they do business, not a financial tail wagging the dog - but a holistic picture of the business.
Would you be willing to try another one of Kelly Bourquin’s performances?
NO! Narrator was not good in this book - no proper stopping between sentences, monotonous most of the time - and especially towards the end of the book - sentences where not completed properly or punctuation was not adhered to. Unfortunately this does the book no justice at all!

Historia
Richard H. Thaler has spent his career studying the radical notion that the central agents in the economy are humans - predictable, error-prone individuals. Misbehaving is his arresting, frequently hilarious account of the struggle to bring an academic discipline back down to earth - and change the way we think about economics, ourselves, and our world.

A listing of who's who in Behavioral Economics
Revisado: 06-04-15
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
More about behavioral economics as per the title instead of a listing of and biography of whom the author met, collaborated with, had lunch with, or attend a conference with...
Would you ever listen to anything by Richard Thaler again?
Nope
What three words best describe L. J. Ganser’s performance?
Good, clear
What character would you cut from Misbehaving?
There are just too many to name

Revisado: 10-03-13
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
Anyone who wants to start putting dashboard or rather performance measurement toolsets together
What do you think your next listen will be?
David & Goliath - Gladwell
Did Ken Maxon do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
Nope - voice was monotonous - and after my previous listen was a complete let down.
Any additional comments?
The really good stuff only starts half-way into the book

Critique for Narrator
Revisado: 08-05-11
I found the sniffs/snorts from the narrator a bit irritating in some sections of the audio book but otherwise the author gave some good insight into the beginnings of FB.
