Build, Don't Talk:Things You Wish You Were Taught in School by Raj Shamani is a non-fiction l, self-help book that goes into the details of what we should have been taught in schools and where the education system lacks. It tells about a lot of things that could have been there and were not and then discussed them in detail.
Each chapter starts with a suggestion or tricks to understand things better and ends with key takeaways to conclude that chapter in a few words and better understanding. Divided into 39 chapters, each chapter shows, in brief, the topics it covers. The author shared a lot of experiences from his career as an entrepreneur and a social media influencer.
Apart from the last chapter which was "Things I Wish I Was Taught in School" where various people who specialized in their field like Sharan Hegde, Vaibhav Sisinty, Ranveer Allahbadia, Rachna Ranade, and others including the author himself talk about things they wish were included in the learning process of schools, I don't feel much connection to the content of the book. It felt like a reel script, but that's not the problem. I didn't know who the author was before I got to know about the book and thus, I don't know if the content does overlap with the visual content present already or not. It's just that what I found in the book were mere problems and not quite the solutions which I was expecting.
The content there was not something out of the box and new and you might have heard it at some point or another. And only because the last chapter was a savior in this book and elated my rating, I'll give it 3/5 stars.
