Finding Flow was very different from what I expected, but interesting! The book reads more like a science-meets-religion treatise than a self-help book.

I bought it partly because I have spent 20 years "selling" governments on the idea of doing more with unclassified sources and less with expensive secrets that capture only 4% of the relevant information, and partly because when I role play the well-intentioned but largely hand-cuffed Director of National Intelligence (DNI), I see a real inability to ...             The Notebook1548 reviews Nicholas Sparks Warner Books, 1996 Something to hope for I believe in love that can withstand all, and this book has so poetically captured what most dream of finding.

I just finished reading the book Total Engagement.
