...concepts sound interesting, the book quickly becomes as repetitive as Mrs. Kimball lecturing you while you were hogging the blocks during playtime. It never reaches the same level of enjoyability as other popular works of social science. After all, you never once had her tell you “Blink.” Perhaps the reasoning behind the anecdotes—which cover industries from gold mining and technology to automobiles and physics—is to convince CEOs and businessmen to take a chance with revealing some of their biggest secrets to the world community.
