We believe in a metaphorical Book of Life, into which we are inscribed and sealed for life and health. I like to think of this book not only as a book of life, but as a book of the living. Though many of us are reading E-books, or downloading an audio, this book of life, is one that we author ourselves.

It's one of the most refreshing lean books I've read in a long time, and I strongly recommend it to anyone who is, well, practicing lean in their organizations. The book is an anthology with contributions by (as of this post) 16 different authors. It's the variety in tone, content, and style that really gives the book its charm.

The title of Art Smalley’s new book, Four Types of Problems , is misleading. In that regards, it’s an excellent reference book that belongs on every bookshelf. If you’re familiar with the different ways of approaching problems, Four Types of Problems is a useful reference book. It doesn’t actually address four types of problems.

Mike Schur, co-creator of Parks and Recreation, said of his career, “This is not stuff you can read in a book,” he said. There are things you will have trouble experiencing until you read them in a book. A useful non-fiction book is a map, not the territory. And a book makes it easy to talk about what you’re doing.
