This is not just an important but an imperative project' – Nassim Nicholas Taleb, bestselling author of The Black Swan

Master the science of success with The Formula, the ground-breaking international bestseller that reveals the indisputable scientific laws that can turn your achievements into success and how to use them to your own advantage.

Ever wondered about the silent laws at play behind every successful venture? In The Formula, Albert-László Barabási, a preeminent voice in the science of networks, shares the profound scientific rules that determine who truly excels and why.

Drawing on Big Data research that covers everyone from the ace fighter pilot The Red Baron to graffiti artist Jean-Michel Basquiat; Miles Davis and his recording of Kind of Blue to Marcel Duchamp and Tiger Woods, Barabasi, shows why success can come at any time, as long as we are persistent, why in successful teams one person gets the lion share of the credit and why the last interviewee almost always gets the job.

Discover the five intrinsic laws that govern success and learn to wield them to your advantage. The Formula offers unique, scientifically grounded perspectives on success in today's ever-evolving landscape.

Writing in a lively fashion, he illuminates broad principles that explain how people in all fields – from entrepreneurs to scientists to athletes to artists – achieve success. (Nicholas Christakis, co-author of Connected and the Sol Goldman Family Professor of Social and Natural Science at Yale University)

In his new book, Laszlo Barabási delights us with the stories and mechanisms that explain success in our achievement-obsessed society (Cesar A. Hidalgo, author of Why Information Grows and Director of the Macro Connections group at the MIT Media Lab)

Barabási will indelibly transform the way we all think about success (Alex Pentland, author of Social Physics and Toshiba Professor at MIT)

Definitely worth a read!

This a wonderful and thought provoking read.

I would strongly recommend this book.

I really loved the final chapters on Creativity and The Q Factor.

Mind blowing stuff

One of the best books I've listened to in a while. Detailed in how the laws are conceived, it leaves very little space for doubt. There's a scientific authenticity to the laws.
