Review : As an engineer, and most engineers can relate probably, I am very curious about how other branches of knowledge organize and work through their particular problems, both because engineering benefits greatly from understanding several problem domains, making you more versatile as a problem solver, and partly because you can translate understanding and knowledge from other areas to your own. This set comprises six books, each focused on a particular topic, but all from the point of view of a business owner or manager. There are a lot of mini processes embedded throughout the essays (each book has 11 essays iirc, the 10 must read and one 'extra'), with several case studies illustrating them - or whatever point the authors are trying to make, which will give you a better understanding of how this are used in real life. Of course, this is a book and a lot of subtleties will be removed from the case studies, either because the authors took the liberty to simplify the case to make it more palatable to the intended audience, or because they actually haven't been extremely familiar throughout the whole development (ie, sometimes they use as example CEO transitions and say, since the new CEO applies this principle - or viceversa, since the new CEO ignores it - this or that happens... but this is in a period of maybe 8-10 years). So far i haven't had the time to go through the whole series, i've read about half of it fully and have had the chance to discuss some of the books with friends, and we all agree that they possess great insights (we're all engineers, so your mileage might vary)
