Recensioner i media

‘Fisher explores different types of groups, whether sports teams or scientists, showing that identifying a clear purpose and defined outcomes is key . . . he makes the case for the importance of competition within a collective environment, and warns against the dark heart that can lie within unquestioning conformity. The book is rounded out with a section on leadership and how to put collective perspective into action . . . Fisher’s irreverent writing approach and pop culture references make the topic palatable, and enjoyable’
