Meh...

A sprinkling of insight buried in hundreds of pages of stuff that isn't new. If you must read this look for it at the library.

This starts out with a story that will make your blood boil. Then ends with another true revelation.

The book is really good. I loved it. We prejudge people too quickly and after reading this and listening to Jordan Peterson I am determined to listen more and to be more gracious to others. I think every police department should read this book.

Great Book, Better Audio Book

This book was thought-provoking yet easy to follow. The content is very relevant and well worth the read. The audio book was produced well, and is voiced by the author, so its quality matches that of his podcast.
