Honestly a book that should be on top of the list for anyone involved in business. Filled with good thoughts and sensible advices for running businesses that put people first.

En nydelig bok om det å være i skogen. Nøktern og jordnær med mye bra filosofi rundt menneskets plass i naturen og universet. Forfatteren skriver veldig godt med et veldig billedlig språk som får en til å føle en er med på tur, som observatør fra sekkelokket.

Nydelig bok om ved, metoder og vedfolk. Herlig lesning og enkel å relatere til om man trives med fyr i en ovn eller peis.

Mye interessant historie. Mye bra livsfilosofi. Rett og slett en veldig trivelig bok å lese. Vi burde alle være litt mer Charlie i hverdagen.

Beinhard!

I guess asking me to review this is similar to asking a Christian to review the bible, or a teenager to review the latest song from Justin Bieber. I am as biased here as I can be, so you should not listen to me. Read the book yourself!

This felt like reading a film manuscript poorly transformed into a book.

The ideas behind the main plot, where we come from and where we are going, are really clever. However, they are squeezed into the regular Robert Langdon scheme and would have benefitted greatly from Dan Brown writing a different kind of Robert Langdon story this time.

Very mixed feelings about this book. At times I felt like I was reading a teenage love novel, which left me feeling uncomfortable and bored. Then suddenly the the book turns hard core adult fantasy and is 5-star enjoyable. However, the love story parts of the book leaves me feeling this could have been quite a lot better.

Still debating myself whether to give book two a go or not.

The book makes some very good points about how we design and develop systems today, so it should be a must-read for everyone even remotely associated with building systems that has users. However the Norwegian translation was not top notch which was a bit disappointing. Should have had a second review before print.
