Best book on strategy
Reviewed: 03-05-20
This is one of the best books on strategy out there. Along with Clayton christensen’s books (competing against luck), having read this will open your eyes to what a good strategy looks like, what a bad one looks like, and provides a concrete path to finding a good strategy.

A must read
Reviewed: 01-05-20
This book elegantly articulates the reality we live in today in a way that resonates at a personal level. In the same moment that one feels deeply disturbed by the reality that Jia’s writing makes visible, one is also left profoundly comforted. She makes visible what we all already recognize to be true in such a clear and poignant way, it is as if she is articulating my personal experiences and thoughts with more grace and with better prose than I could muster to do for myself.
It is a breathtaking work. Best of all, it is filled with references to the world of literature that would make any book-lovers heart sing. This book has taken its place among my all time favorites; a must read for all.

Accessible, quick read; great for young women

Great Xmas gift for the young women in your life.
It’s a contemporary, conversational rewrite of many classics like Naomi wolf’s the beauty myth.
Should be required reading for all women :)
