Historia
Over the last decade, Azeem Azhar - writer, technologist and creator of the Exponential View platform - has become our leading thinker on how technology is transforming business, politics and society. Now, Azhar offers a holistic way to think about the effects of new tech. Our society, Azhar argues, is afflicted by an 'exponential gap' - the gulf between the growing pace of technological change, and our institutions' struggle to keep up.

Concerned about this one thing.
Revisado: 12-15-21
The book is heading in the right direction however the author either by accident or on purpose made a statement regarding Kyle Rittenhouse that I found misleading. The author's statement and the facts of the event don't align. The Rittenhouse statement made by the author in this book seems careless and cherry-picked to serve a purpose that I think is irrelevant in the context of this book. Is the author jumping on the sensation station?. (perhaps it was made for this very reason, so people like me would write reviews like this so so the “search factor” would improve .. cynical I know✌️) I don't believe that, do I?
I am just interested in the truth. No Fake news, please. No sensationalism for me. We need to hold each other accountable.

Mastery is simple to understand hard to do
Revisado: 07-21-20
Don’t let the simplicity fool you. This book is well thought out and well written. The real skill lies in the readers ability to apply the lessons learnt. Like with all things...

Wow! I was truly impressed.
The value here is that this book is relevant to now. It shows us how leaders have been thinking. How others have been thinking and how we should be thinking if we want to continue on the path of responsibility, sustainability and longevity in our Busines lives. The infinite game.

Historia
How important is luck in economic success? No question more reliably divides conservatives from liberals. As conservatives correctly observe, people who amass great fortunes are almost always talented and hardworking. But liberals are also correct to note that countless others have those same qualities yet never earn much. In recent years, social scientists have discovered that chance plays a much larger role in important life outcomes than most people imagine.

Not what is advertised
Revisado: 04-18-17
What did you like best about Success and Luck? What did you like least?
The author seems to be a well educated person and has a point
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
I feel the book is not as is advertised. The myth of meritocracy is argued in order to pursue the hidden agenda of this book and that is to champion the new idea of Consumption Tax.
Do you think Success and Luck needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
No follow up required.
Any additional comments?
Not at all what was expected.

Historia
In 2009, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed at the Super Bowl's halftime show. The experience was so exhilarating that Bruce decided to write about it. That's how this extraordinary autobiography began. Over the past seven years, Bruce Springsteen has privately devoted himself to writing the story of his life, bringing to this audio the same honesty, humor, and originality found in his songs.

Historia
Winston Churchill is perhaps the most important political figure of the 20th century. His great oratory and leadership during the Second World War were only part of his huge breadth of experience and achievement. Studying his life is a fascinating way to imbibe the history of his era and gain insight into key events that have shaped our time.

Superb - Review of Both Volume I & Volume II

The best reading of a book I have ever heard
Revisado: 09-09-16
Subject matter is inspiring, the story is fantastic, and the reading of it is incredible. The author pays homage to the subject matter by waxing lyrical.
When writing a book about one of the worlds greatest writers the book itself must be greatly written as it is in this case.

Revisado: 12-03-15
Wonderfully presented and rich in valid content. My only wish is that because modern political Africa is so young it would be nice to have an updated experience that ends in 2015 and not 2005. Thank you for presenting a course on my continent and please continue to do so.
I am an Afrikaner African living in South Africa and proudly South Africa...

Historia
Most of us are quite relaxed and confident when we're with our friends and family. We can tell a story or even tell a joke. But put us on a platform and we can feel very different. When we speak to an audience, we often put on a public mask; and use a different voice. Why can't we seem to be ourselves when we give a talk? In this audiobook, we will look at all aspects of spoken communication, from structure right through to delivery. We will learn how to have a conversation with our audience - to be ourselves - so that we connect with them every time we speak.
