I believe that there are very strong lessons here for any government that wants to direct economic policy too strongly. In particular, I hope that many in the Obama Administration read this book and take away some valuable lessons, reverse current policies and listen to business leaders more. But I digress.

Be totally honest - how likely am I to understand this book? It sounds fully intriguing.
