Shabana Mukhtar Nicely summed up! A lot of non-fic review these days mention the same thing - 'repetitive and nothing new'.

Thanks, Shabana! I hate to give negative reviews, but I really struggled with this one. :)

Shabana Mukhtar I totally get it. But a reader's gotta do what she gotta do :)

Mark Adam Summed up my feelings personally. My only take away outside of content for 2/3 lifehacker articles is the author's inflated opinion about the importance of academia.

I agree! The publish or perish mantra needs to be broadened to include quality and humility.
