Summary of Atomic Habits
Somewhat related but I find many nonfiction books could easily be condensed down an immense amount (talking 20 to 50% here). I don't know if it's me getting older or simply not wanting to put up with filler content anymore.<p>A book that does this terribly is the "The Checklist Manifesto." ~250 pages of filler when the original article was 20 pages, the exact same information but distilled down to its essence:<p><a href="https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2007/12/10/the-checklist" rel="nofollow">https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2007/12/10/the-checklist</a><p>I haven't read Atomic Habits, but I did get the audio book but after reading this summary (which is very good, and much appreciated) I probably won't give it a listen.<p>I'm curious if people feel the same way about other books?
