The categorisation at the back of the book is business, and a lot of the advice is about how to be successful in the business sphere. I'm not in danger of becoming a businesswoman any time soon, since I still have years left on my degree, so I did skim those parts. The personal development chapters at the start of the book taught me a few new things about self-actualisation and productivity, so I did enjoy those parts. My sister said she wishes Steven Bartlett wasn't such an ass, and I think I echo this sentiment in general, but the ass-ness doesn't come across in this book :)

Nothing brings it down, really, I just didn't have an application for the advice in half the book. I think I'm the wrong audience.

PS I am aware I chose a business book and then found fault in it being a business book. Bite me.
