Reviews

Excellent book, 29 Jul 2009
By Julie Strang (London, UK)

I have now read the first and third books in Simon's trilogy and am very impressed. I have read loads of leadership/business books and this one stands out from the rest. It is different, insightful, bold and succinct. I highly recommend this book.

Made me think, 7 Jul 2009
By Mr. M. W. Jarvis "Infrequent reader"

I didn't expect this book to be a "page turner" from the title but was inspired to read it by seeing the author at a conference. However once I started I was really surprised how quickly and easily I read it, understood the point being made and was challenged to do something. Simon outlines a theory of the structures of society and then shows how we have got to this point and therefore what we need to do in order to develop a new model of society. Without being directive about specific actions Simons gives direction both for practical action and discussion pointers.
