This book is a fun read. It purports to be about nothing and everything, and its probably pretty close.
While some of the statements are probably over blown, the underlying concepts seems to be:
- Economics impact everything,
- Its not always clear what the impact of an inducement or even a change might really be, and
- Things aren’t always as they seem.
It’s good to be reminded of those things now and again….
