A brilliant review of a brilliant book that is simultaneously both very dated and never more relevant.
As Sami points out, work-to-rule is a profound illustration of why organisational complexity and messy reality will make AI adoption much harder and longer than is currently supposed.
Thomas Heatherwick’s brilliant “Humanize” provides an equally superb, perhaps more accessible, deconstruction (pun intended) of Le Corbusier’s aesthetic and the subtle social damage caused by much modern architecture.
It finally happened: you reviewed a book as I'm reading it! And a long overdue read it is, since several friends recommended it years ago.
I love your review (and admire your reading speed and reviewing prowess) as I love the book. We have sacrificed so much of what humans need and learned in order to become "civilized." Seems a shame that those lessons still haven't sunk in.

Full of wisdom and insights worth reading and reflecting upon!
