Bursts: The Hidden Pattern Behind Everything We Do by Albert-László Barabási

3.0

On one hand, I loved the technique of moving back and forth through time and situations, weaving strands between science and history. However, the telling of the story of the medieval Hungarian revolution went on for far too long.

The historian in me was fascinated, but the social scientist in me was frustrated. I also wanted more about the "outliers."

This is not a book for business people wanting the latest buzzwords or jargon. Rather, it will appeal to those who enjoy an esoteric, cross-disciplinary approach to things, and going down many rabbit holes.
