The idea is simple: You don't have to choose between being a pushover and a jerk. Using Radical Candor - avoiding the perils of Obnoxious Aggression, Manipulative Insincerity, and Ruinous Empathy - you can be kind and clear at the same time. Kim Scott was a highly successful leader at Google before decamping to Apple, where she developed and taught a management class.

Painful stories of the entitled
Revisado: 05-26-20
Sounds like Kim Scott is a hard worker, good for her. Her advice and stories are out of touch with reality. Glad she is not my neighbor, this is hard to listen to.

James A. Garfield may have been the most extraordinary man ever elected president. Born into abject poverty, he rose to become a wunderkind scholar, a Civil War hero, and a renowned and admired reformist congressman. Nominated for president against his will, he engaged in a fierce battle with the corrupt political establishment. But four months after his inauguration, a deranged office seeker tracked Garfield down and shot him in the back. But the shot didn’t kill Garfield. The drama of what happened subsequently is a powerful story of a nation in turmoil.

Not River of Doubt
Revisado: 09-10-12
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Very interesting story, full of villains and heroes. After a few hours the facts seem to be just a little too accurate for such a long time ago. The story unnecessarily drags on.
What could Candice Millard have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
The story lost credibility by the time of the assassination. Again too many facts that are conveniently woven into the narrative. I did not need to know that Garfield's father in law was with the presidents children at the time of that assassination. Move along!
Do you think Destiny of the Republic needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
Ya, maybe the detailed story about Garfield's undertaker and how he had the worlds most complete used stamp collection.
Any additional comments?

Slow and boring
Revisado: 06-12-12
This book was not what was advertised. No new information, just a money grab by the author. Don't waste a credit.

Funnyman Adam Carolla is known for two things: hilarious rants about things that drive him crazy and personal stories about everything from his hardscrabble childhood to his slacker friends to the hypocrisy of Hollywood. He tackled rants in his first book, and now he tells his best stories and debuts some never-before-heard tales as well. Adam Carolla started broke and blue collar and has now been on the Hollywood scene for over 15 years. Yet he never lost his underdog demeanor.

Polished Carolla
Revisado: 06-12-12
Loved it???.. totally worth spending a credit, very fun to hear these stories told by the author. Each chapter is filled with fun and impressive stories backed up with thoughtful life lessons. This book should be considered therapy for both Carolla and the reader. I kind of hate his mom after hearing some of the crappy things she put him through.

Why we think it’s a great listen: When it comes to author/narrator pairings, nobody tops James Lee Burke and Will Patton in the Robicheaux thrillers. Beloved Burke hero Detective Dave Robicheaux here returns to New Iberia to solve a series of grisly murders. Seven young women in neighboring Jefferson Davis Parish have been brutally murdered. While the crimes have all the telltale signs of a serial killer, the death of Bernadette Latiolais, a high-school honor student, doesn’t fit.

OK....go for the abridged
Revisado: 08-10-10
I believe most these reviews are planted by the publisher. 5 stars......really? The plot becomes so poor and flawed you feel dumb just for continuing to listen. The abridged version would be entertaining, yet not waste 4 hours of your life with unnecessary twists and implausible violence. I wish I had the credit back.

This book was writen to be a bad movie.
Lots of tech lingo with weak clich? characters. Big mean FBI guys and perverted evil nerd villains. Don't waste your time.
