Story
What is “being geeky?” It’s being a perennially curious person, one who's not afraid to tackle hard problems and embrace unconventional solutions. McAfee shows how the geeks have created a new culture based around four norms: science, ownership, speed, and openness. The geek way seems odd at first. It's not deferential to experts, fond of planning and process, afraid of mistakes, or obsessed with "winning." But it explains everything from why Montessori babies turn out to be creative tinkerers to how newcomers are disrupting industry after industry (and still just getting started).

Our current definition of “productivity” is broken. It pushes us to treat busyness as a proxy for useful effort, leading to impossibly lengthy task lists and ceaseless meetings. We’re overwhelmed by all we have to do and on the edge of burnout, left to decide between giving into soul-sapping hustle culture or rejecting ambition altogether. But are these really our only choices?

Publisher's summary
As one of the world's most experienced kidnap-for-ransom negotiators, Scott Walker has successfully resolved life-or-death crises, facing down gang leaders, pirates, cyberhackers, and extortionists. When he turned to help businesses with negotiation, he realized that the tools and skills he'd need were not so different from the ones he'd mastered in the high-stakes situations he successfully negotiated. Now, he's bringing those lessons to you.
In this book, you will learn Walker's essential negotiation principles and strategies, as well as his tools and techniques, all of which are supported by real-life case studies. You can begin to add these techniques to your repertoire immediately to become a world-class negotiator, capable of persuading anyone, no matter how tenacious and uncompromising they may be.
Built on decades of scientific and academic research along with Walker's extensive experience, Order out of Chaos gives you simple, proven approaches. You'll learn how to slow down high-pressure moments, practice proactive listening, develop your emotional intelligence, and manage conflict. Applied in low-pressure, everyday negotiations with one person or in complex, high-risk scenarios with multiple hostile adversaries, these principles will help you master the moment, communicate effectively, and achieve the outcomes you want.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.
