Generally I hate business stuff but this book presents it really well, references modern cognitive science and avoids the bullshit management speak. Were I feeling cheesy I’d call it “a business book for rationalists” (they even quote Eleizer).
Disclaimer, since I’ve never read any other proper business books so I don’t know how someone with more domain specific knowledge would find it.
I have read a number of business books. That one is by far my favorite, and I’ve given away at least two copies to friends now. (Which reminds me, I ought to buy myself another copy.)

Cool, I noticed a lot of parallels but didn’t realise he was a contributor. I reiterate my endorsement.
