Hard to put down

Is it a war book? Human psychology book? Business book? All of the above. The insights of war written by the authors were extremely interesting in and of themselves, and the lessons they pulled from those situations will help people’s lives in a major way. Bravo Jocko & Leif!

Great book, for some

This book is fantastic at exactly what it is trying to be. But it's not for everybody. If you're in a high level company leadership type position than it's a great read for you. I think it is definitely aimed at executive types. Some of the stories are fun, but that's not the purpose of the book. My wife who is an executive director at a big manufacturing company loved it and says that it really changed her view in a positive way. For me, a stay-at-home Dad, meh It was a little bit interesting and a little bit boring.
