I swear I had all the best intentions, but that book literally taunts me from it's place on the bookshelf where it's been sitting for the past 2 years. Not sure I even made it to chapter 2....

Well the first chapter is very good and reading it will explain why this book is so influential. It's also not very long. You can do it 💪
