Different. Escaping the Competitive Herd

More about the book

Why trying to be the best ... competing like crazy ... makes you mediocreEvery few years a book-through a combination of the author's unique voice, storytelling ability, wit, and insight-simply breaks the mold. Bill Bryson's A Walk in the Woods is one example. Richard Feynman's "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" is another.
