Generic information lacking any substance, coupled with mismatched narration trying to inject enthusiasm into a bland script. Waste of a perfectly good coupon.

I was really hoping this would be like a Simon Winchester book, where one came away with a much deeper understanding & appreciation of the subject matter. But it's a dud IMO. After listening to the first 5 or 6 dry chapters of basically rambling about peripheral issues & jumping around the timeline with no apparent storyline navigation. What is largely absent is the physical or technical aspects of the printing process itself - the press, paper, ink, breakthroughs, false paths, how these breakthroughs were solved by whom & why... I then reverted to listening to the first 5 minutes of forward chapters just to see if things improve. Nope.

I read the reviews & was intrigued by the plain speaking preview sampler, so was quite looking forward to the listen. Its only 3 hours long but I was struggling after 2 hours. It is really just common sense more in the category of 'kick you in the pants' type wisdom. If that's what people need or find awesome, well... each to their own. Once the novelty of Shrek voice passes (about hour-1) I came to realize there is no real structure, procedure, tangible examples, insightful observations, explanations of underlying human behaviour... I didn't expect my life to change because so many of these books are similar. But was at least hopeful of a new perspective. Look for something better IMO.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Mind you, I am into this stuff. How things we recognize got made from the industrial revolution through modern day products has a lot to do with materials, processes, manufacturing techniques... that's kind of intuitive. But less obvious are the underpinnings of how to measure, how to control tolerance, even how visualize things at ever reducing scale & mindboggling degrees of precision. The author takes you on a fascinating journey with these metrics in mind. It makes you appreciate human ingenuity and accomplishment.
