I know it's hard to believe but there are good management books in the world. Susan Scott wrote one of them; this was not it though. This book had one fantastic chapter on how to hire smart people (and I am so using the ideas the next time I interview people).

The author's quirky sense of humor is a bit surprising at times...but the content of the book is great. It grew on me slowly, but in the end, she had fantastic things to say.
