For some reason it has taken over 8 years for me to thoroughly read this book. But finally, I finished it on my way back from Beijing yesterday. I am not going write a review of this book, but let me say if you haven't, go buy and read it now.
This year, I had resolved not to buy any book till I finished this one.. Now I am going to buy 8th habit by Steven Covey and will report back when I finish it.
Ram, congrats on the achievement!
ReplyDeleteThis book was very successful when it came out (in 1994/5 if I remember right), as it was one of the first books of its genre. I remember I used to quote from this book extensively.
But,now I have realised , after reading 100 more books of that sort, that a good work of fiction or a great classic gives me much more joy and teaches me more about life than these pontificating types. Avoid the book on the 'eighth habit' and pick up a Charles Dickens or a Conan Doyle instead.

ReplyDeleteSomehow I have never taken to classics.. I sure would like to give it a shot sometime...
