Book of the week: Have I recommended The Chimp Paradox yet? It’s a brilliant and simple new model for understanding yourself, and why you do the things you do. Possibly life-changing.

    1. Yet another good piece from Allan Roth (“10 lessons from the great stock crash and recovery”).

    2. But I don’t like how he forces you to navigate his lists [here “10 lessons”] one item at a time – without ever giving you the complete list in one place for perusal and/or reference. Also, each item is only identified numerically, by page number, forcing you to click on each link to discover its contents.

    3. Perhaps it’s a lesson in delayed gratification from Mr Roth? 11 lessons, then. 🙂
