Another great title from Lewis

Revisado: 08-18-22

Always a treat to read from Michael Lewis about the unsung heroes that help shape/support our society. Makes me proud to work in the public sector!

Good intro to power and management

Revisado: 01-13-22

I mean it's like a Ted Talk, which tend to be a bit up their own rear ends and skews heavily into the globalism, liberal perspective (I mean it's Davos, so fair enough). That said, these folks are in the positions they are in for a reason and it's a treat for them to provide insight on their views, how they came to their views. The shining parts are the end where the narrator provides tips to the reader at the end of each chapter.

A bit rambling.

Revisado: 01-09-22

While not a bad story and highly recommend for Monigatari fans, I admit it was a bit rambling in the second story. I advise listening the second story while doing something else otherwise you'll fall asleep like I did!

Wonderful story of groundbreaking women

Revisado: 01-09-22

Great performance! Very humanizing of these brilliant, almost transcendent women! A great way to enjoy a Sunday morning hearing a piece of their story.

James Baldwin is brilliant

Revisado: 11-30-21

He provides a deep, personal racism-realism perspective that is sorely missing in this conservative VS. liberal exchange that monopolizes this country's "conversation" of race. Voice was rather boring though, far from a deal breaker! If anything, it kind of adds to the solumn, stark tone of Baldwin's work.

Great story, few things though

Revisado: 03-29-20

I love Nisiosin work! His work is incredibly interesting how it uses the tropes and trappings of anime to tell an incredibly introspective story. I highly recieved all works by this author especially if you are a fan (even if ironically)of imported media from Japan. Notice I say imported media as this audiobook is clearly translated as it gets a bit "talky" even on simple things plus the voice actors and actresses clearly have a similar oration of dubbed anime. I enjoy it as I've grown up with such things, however I can understand those who dont have a tolerance for that "style" would genuinely struggle to enjoy this audio book.

Great book and fantastic insight

Revisado: 11-08-18

Provides fantastic and in depth insight into the 2007 financial crisis. Micheal Lewis will do his best to explain these financial concepts but doesn't pull his punches. The movie hardly scratches the surface with what the book covers.

Great Author

Revisado: 10-19-18

This seems like an overview for the author's previous books (but it was less than a dollar). I like how straightforward he is regarding the subject matter. I recommend the author however pass on this book and get his others.

Great book! Gets to the point

Revisado: 10-12-18

Great advice and easy to follow along with. (Except the the insurance part but I dont think there is a way to make insurance simple.) Also mentions PDFs, which I believe is on the author's website (?) for reference which is cool to come back to. Great to listen to on the train ride home. Highly recommend for the very useful advice.
