Historia
Imagine how different your life would be if you could tell whether someone was lying or telling you the truth. Be it hiring a new employee, investing in a financial interest, speaking with your child about drugs, confronting your significant other about suspected infidelity, or even dating someone new, having the ability to unmask a lie can have far-reaching and even life-altering consequences. As former CIA officers, Philip Houston, Michael Floyd, and Susan Carnicero are among the world’s best at recognizing deceptive behavior.

Interesting listen

I’ve read other lie detection books and this is by far the most interesting and science based.

Great principles
Revisado: 12-15-22
So many great principles. With most high performers, there is more opportunity for improvement by stopping things you’re than from doing things you’re not doing. This book illustrates that point.

Historia
Nobody is in a better position to tell the story of the shocking final chapter of the Trump show than Jonathan Karl. As the reporter who has known Donald Trump longer than any other White House correspondent, Karl told the story of Trump’s rise in the New York Times best seller Front Row at the Trump Show. Now he tells the story of Trump’s downfall, complete with riveting behind-the-scenes accounts of some of the darkest days in the history of the American presidency.

It’s not a political book; it’s a HISTORY book.
Revisado: 02-12-22
I almost never read/listen to political books and am even less likely to read one so squarely against a president I voted for. The author discussed verifiable facts, often cited multiple sources, and in many cases included the audio of sources themselves (including President Trump) in their own words. Karl outlines many ways a different outcome could have been possible. This book will take you back to 2020; know that before you start. This is not a political book, it’s a HISTORY book, and those who do not learn from history (or perhaps more accurately in this case deny or white-wash history) are dammed to repeat it.

Historia
Rocket science is often celebrated as the ultimate triumph of technology. But it's not. Rather, it's the apex of a certain thought process—a way to imagine the unimaginable and solve the unsolvable. It's the same thought process that enabled Neil Armstrong to take his giant leap for mankind, that allows spacecraft to travel millions of miles through outer space and land on a precise spot, and that brings us closer to colonizing other planets.

Great book!
Revisado: 06-24-21
This is a great book. I love how each section starts with a real teaser, like in this chapter you’ll learn why you SHOULD compare apples and oranges. Many great examples to his powerful message.

Historia
You cannot bounce back from hardship. You can only move through it. There is a path through pain to wisdom, through suffering to strength, and through fear to courage if we have the virtue of resilience. In 2012, Eric Greitens unexpectedly heard from a former SEAL comrade, a brother-in-arms he hadn’t seen in a decade. Zach Walker had been one of the toughest of the tough. But ever since he returned home from war to his young family in a small logging town, he’d been struggling. Without a sense of purpose, plagued by PTSD, and masking his pain with heavy drinking, he needed help. Zach and Eric started writing and talking nearly every day, as Eric set down his thoughts on what it takes to build resilience in our lives.

Thoughts from a reflective practitioner, a navy seal, scholar, and philosopher on living well. This may be the best book I have ever read/listened to, and I can not recommend it highly enough. Just awesome.

Historia
Continuous improvement, understanding complex systems, and promoting innovation are all part of the landscape of learning challenges today's companies face. Amy Edmondson shows that organizations thrive, or fail to thrive, based on how well the small groups within those organizations work. In most organizations, the work that produces value for customers is carried out by teams, and increasingly, by flexible team-like entities.

35 hours long- that’s not a typo. This could have been 5 audio books, and some authors do it that way. All of them would have been worth listening to. This covered so many topics from intro to crazy advanced. Consider this book equivalent to a graduate class. I just bought a used hard copy of this book because I missed all the “in the diagram/chart below” etc. Also, unlike most audiobooks, the chapters actually have titles so you can use that to skip to just the parts you need (or listen to the just the lessons learned, which are the chapter summaries). In such a long book this was great to have. I’ll need to go through this a second time for sure along with the hard copy once my brain heals a bit.

Historia
Medicine has become inhuman, to disastrous effect. The doctor-patient relationship - the heart of medicine - is broken: doctors are too distracted and overwhelmed to truly connect with their patients, and medical errors and misdiagnoses abound. In Deep Medicine, leading physician Eric Topol reveals how artificial intelligence can help. AI has the potential to transform everything doctors do, from notetaking and medical scans to diagnosis and treatment, greatly cutting down the cost of medicine and reducing human mortality.

Can’t recommend this highly enough
Revisado: 11-25-19
I’m a non-clinical data scientist starting to work more in the clinical space, and this book taught me so much. Most of his non-clinical citations come from books I’ve read, and he summarized their work very well. I heard this author speak at the 2019 CHIME CIO forum,and bought this book while he was talking, without reading the reviews or listening to a sample. I just knew it would be great, and I was not wrong.

Lots of facts and lots of speculation
Revisado: 08-13-19
The first half was packed with terms, history and facts, so much so I plan to go back and re-listen right away. This part I really enjoyed and was exactly what I was looking for. The last half was full of predictions and speculations, like people in the future won’t go to grocery stores. As someone who stops at the market because I don’t know what I want for dinner (and sometimes gets the rotisserie chicken because of the way it smells) I doubt that. Overall a great book that provides the foundation on this topic and worth the time.

Sooooo many word, so little meat
Revisado: 08-10-19
This would have been a much better book without all the unnecessary sentences and repetition of the little meat that was there. It seemed like the author took three hours of material and crammed it into a ten hour book.
