Once you start to read, it will slow you down because it makes you realize of the real blindness we all have, the book examples many, many, events and tragedies that have and are happening to us and the whole world, it was a timely read in that it also applies to the recent events in Washington and what our elected politicians do all the time to us working stiffs.
I purchased 2 of these books and passed 1 on to friends who had the same reading experience
I did, am going to re-read again .

Don't be an ostrich!
The author reviews situations where we ignore what is going on either from personal bias, urge to please others, don't want to face reality, etc. She suggests we challenge what we see and ask more disagreeable questions so we can truly see things more clearly and not just sit by passively while others take charge and make decisions. Heffernan says we need to be prepared to turn our assumptions upside down and examine them.
