ever read, full of surprising and powerful ideas. It will not only
change the way you see the world; it might just change the way you

profound change, Adam Grant gives us a powerful new perspective on
not just our place in the world, but our potential to shake it up
entirely. * JJ Abrams, director of Star Wars: The Force Awakens,
