I agree with most of the other reviews, both good and bad!

Yes, the author seems like an eccentric billionaire who is painting the picture in a biased way AND yes, the concept of crystalizing, recording, and applying principles is a great idea. Yes, it's heavy on concept and light on application AND yes, some of his tools are brilliant. Yes, many of the principles are obvious or idealistic or potentially much more alienating than he suggests AND yes, some of them have already been useful to me.

Yes, it has many flaws AND yes, I now want to get a hard copy to dog-ear and mark up.
