Review from Breaking Seas →
Over all the story was well told however I am saddened the story even existed to tell. It started with bad judgment, continued with bad judgment and ended with a little luck, but over all bad judgment. He risked the lives of his crew by selling inexperience as an asset. They were indeed volunteers but..
Review from Running to the Edge →
Every runner has a story and a reason they run. The stirring ambition and commitment of these runners is captivating. Their coach believing, testing, and connecting it all. It’s simple. The outcomes obvious at times. Their pains were real though. I enjoyed these stories of endurance.

This is a great listen for both coders and non-coders alike. I was impressed with the extensive research and interviews done for this book. The author does a good job of getting multiple perspectives on a wide range of topics related to coding. As a coder myself, much of this book was already familiar to..
Learnt a lot, but more importantly, I now also have pointers to go deeper into understanding and utilising many of models mentioned. Serves as a very good intro on the topic. Loved the fact that the book references a lot of books and I have read or heard about only a handful of them, so..
