Interesting modernized new twist on such a classic thing like cooking. Brewer dives deep into the science behind the WHY of cooking.

Amazing book, truly thought provoking

This book is amazing! It is now one of my favorite books ever. It talks about so many important themes! It deserves a 10 star rating instead of 5. I would recommend this book to everyone.

Loved it! The original premise sounded straightforward, but don't be fooled--there are tons of twists and turns! Can't say much more without spoiling, but if you're looking for a fast-paced, fun read, this is for you!

I have read a lot about China, a lot about Apple - this is a great update to the investments/commitments and at times, ad hoc "strategy" of how Apple has been successful in the manufacturing of their products for close to 20 years. A must read for those interested in the crossroads of high-tech, manufacturing and global economics

Book was pretty good. At times to much detail at once so it was a lot to sort out. There was a plot twist I did not see coming.

First time reading this author's work and although it was a pleasurable story, it was more like a light summer read to me. The premise is that Veronica found out that she was adopted through a DNA test kit given to her by her sister for Christmas. She suspected as such since her high school years but never spoke of it until now. Her adopted family thought it would be good to visit the countries that she was related to and her father paid for a trip arranged by her sister to Ireland, France Italy and Denmark. There are elements of fantasy throughout which you had to go with, but it was a very predictable story . I will rate it 3 stars, but I think the author could have made the book more interesting by giving more background on the characters and on Veronica's relationship with Jonathan previous to her trip.

In To Sell Is Human, Daniel H. Pink challenges the traditional view of sales as something only used by pushy professionals with quotas to meet. He argues that in today’s world, we’re all in sales, which I truly agree with, whether we realize it or not. Whether you’re a teacher persuading students, a parent guiding a child, or an entrepreneur pitching an idea, you’re constantly trying to move others. He introduces a new framework for effective selling, replacing the old “Always Be Closing” mindset with “Attunement, Buoyancy, and Clarity.” These qualities help us connect with others, stay resilient through rejection, and make complex ideas easier to understand. He also redefines the idea of pitching, offering creative alternatives like the one-word pitch or the Pixar pitch to match today’s fast-paced, attention-limited world. Ultimately, the book emphasizes that the best kind of selling isn’t about tricking people—it’s about serving them. If what you’re offering genuinely helps, and you present it with empathy and purpose, then selling becomes a human act, not a manipulative one.

I really loved this book. It tells of the military training on Cape Cod during WW2.

Entertaining read about 1920's small town life.
