The book is thoroughly based on researchers, interviews, and the author’s own experiences. The best thing was the experiences mentioned by him were very recent, unbiased & did not take the sides of any party or community.
Each page of this book contains different decision models, making it a reference book that you can use in everyday life. Don’t rush through this book. Read and then reflect.
I first read this book when I was 19. I found this book worth reading for building a sound foundation of knowing your emotions and administering them well according to different situations. If you have less control over your emotions and you overreact or outburst on certain things, then you should definitely read this book for a brighter side.
Even better is to hear this as an Audio Book. An amazing book that I have ever read truly made me change the way of my thinking. After reading this book it will make you rethink how you understand the world around you.
Luckily I read this book in 2008 – Just before my marriage. I exactly don’t remember how I reached this book. It focuses a lot on problems solving and marital relationships.
This is a strange book. Book that hooks you from 1st paragraph onwards. I read this when I was young. I could not understand the hidden message in it.
It is a concise book. If you have been a regular reader of Hindu literature – none of the writing is eye opening. The best thing about the book is how Thich Nhat Hanh can explain methods of meditation.
Bill Gates himself has written a review for this book on GoodReads. Factfulness has a very similar premise to Freakonomics
Short but very thought provoking. Its 50 page, 1500 word essay. Available on Amazon India for INR ~2500. Recommended to me by Shrikant Somani, Head of Sales at GreyAtom.
I have 10 doctors in my immediate family. This book was an impulsive airport pick. Before reading this book I knew that the Indian healthcare stories are full of corruption, commercialization and medical negligence but after reading this I now know the magnitude of the situation and it is alarming at the very least.
