In fact, this exposed some nerdy things about baseball analysis that had previously escaped my attention, and made it so I can at least talk with hardcore baseball fans about team management strategy.
There are subtexts in this book, however, that require some analysis after you finish the book (and the afterword) to really drive them home. It's worth it.
This book is about heretical management ideas succeeding despite the status quo, and from a certain point of view, BECAUSE of the status quo.
This book is about analyzing markets for your own advantage (or that of your organization). Specifically, it's about finding value that nobody else has noticed, yet, and purchasing that value for pennies on the dollar before the market catches up.
This book is about how interesting real-life characters who were undervalued by the status quo succeeding because someone discovered how to value them.
It's for everyone, even non baseball fans like me.(less)

I was always impressed by his technical hacker skills, but until I read this had no real understanding of the power of his social engineering skills and chutzpah.
Highly recommended for all my propeller-head friends. Extra bonus recommendation if you're into security.(less)

Surprises, huge plot and character moves, and satisfying badassery abound once again in a book GRRM complains was "three bitches and a bastard" to complete.
I'm not sure which is going to be more painful, waiting until next year for the second season of the TV series, or waiting for book #6(less)

I think the bits on advanced python code patterns and usage of things like decorators and closures and all the functools stuff were the most useful to me. I was able to begin using these techniques right after reading the chapter, and I am always finding new ways to apply them in both my day job and the game development I'm invariably always working on. -- I'm about 40% of the way through this book according to my Kindle, and I freakin' love it. I swear I'm 2-3x as productive after the first 5 chapters. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to level up their Python skillz.(less)
