Avoid miniature edition May 9, 2008

Like another reader, I somehow buyed this edition which is microscopical in size. There are two problems:br /br /1) I guess the text is abridged because the content is not very cohesive.br /2) As the book is so small, it is impossible to get a sense of the structure of the content.br /br /If you had asked me right after reading the book what the 7 habits were, I wouldn't have been able to answer to you. And this hasn't changed since then. I guess I'll have to buy the unabridged standard format edition

Miniature Edition April 6, 2008

I would recommend to buy the complete unabridged book, not the miniature edition.br /br /This book is the most famous title of Stephen R. Covey, a professor of Brigham Young University where he taught prior to the publication of this best-selling work. The audio version became the first non-fiction audio-book in U.S. publishing history to sell more than one million copies. Covey holds a BS degree in Business Administration from University of Utah in Salt Lake City, an MBA from Harvard University, and a Doctorate of Religious Education (DRE) in Mormon Church History and Doctrine from Brigham Young University. He also holds membership of the Pi Kappa Alpha International Fraternity.br /br /This book is mainly about the time management (chapters 1, 2, 3, 7) and interpersonal relationships (chapters 4, 5, 6). The other time-management books, like "Getting Things Done" by David Allen and "Time Drive" by Gleb Arkhangelsky, frequently overlook the importance of interpersonal relationships in the time management. br /br /Many of the ideas and much of the language of this book recast the content of the classic 1966 Peter F. Drucker book "The Effective Executive", wherein Drucker wrote: "Effectiveness, in other words, is a habit", and which includes a chapter called "First Things First".br /br /The author consistently opposes "quick-fix" solutions to life or business problems and insists that changes in paradigm or mindset to align with natural principles provide the "true" source of solutions. Covey points out, for example, that the paradigm that produces short-term results in business inevitably leads to an inability to produce results for the long term. He calls this "killing the golden goose". Covey advocates balancing short- and long-term productive capacities as the most effective mindset for the businessperson.br /br /Once again, I would recommend to buy the complete unabridged book, not the miniature edition.br /

This book did not meet my needs. I am having to teach this book at the university level, the miniature edition was not practical. Thank you.

Be sure you are not buying the miniature edition, unless that is what you want. I thought I was buying the regular book and was surprised to receive a miniature edition.
