Nonsense

the Power of Not Knowing
Dec 08, 2016danielestes rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
Nonsense is a fine book whose premise promises much more than it can deliver. We live in a world over-saturated with signals and information, i.e. much of it nonsense, so the idea that one can harness this unavoidable onslaught into something of an advantage is a welcomed assurance. Author Jamie Holmes offers anecdote after anecdote on making sense of the randomness. The stories are good—some of which I'm familiar with from other business-esque books—but I suspect there's a tricky balance to maintain reader interest when your unifying theme (nonsense) is also that which people actively try to minimize in their lives.
