Book Reviews of The Art of Profitability

Book Review: Excellent Vehicle for Teaching Insights
Summary: 5 Stars

I know that some are critical of his writing style. Yes, it's not as crisp as best-seller novel, but it is a great way to learn. This method of teaching was absolutely fantastic for me. Can you imagine how dry the 23 Profit Models would be without a story? The characters started to grow on me after six or seven times through. I had audio version, but the book might be ok, too. The author is one of the most insightful I've come across. His book on digital business was very good as well.
