I'll start out by saying that I've never written a review for an audiobook prior to this, however after seeing the negative comments, I felt compelled to do so. I find this book to be incredibly well-written, thought-out and delivered. Sir John Hargrave has an ability to deliver heavy material with a light, humorous touch. I've listened to it so many times, and that says a lot as there are only a handful of books in my vast audiobook library I can say that about. A bit of context: I have a technology background and I think that makes this book resonate even more for me. I can see where someone who doesn't have tech running through their veins (so to speak) may not find the book's tech analogies and coding background quite as resonate. However, if you are indeed someone who has been in the world of technology, or are tech-oriented, I can't think of a better book to help bring these concepts from the abstract to the logical and vice versa as we tech folk tend to be very heavy on the logic side of things. But, if you aren't a techno-geek, do not let that dissuade you...this is still a fantastic book on understanding how to get around our routine way of thinking and exploit what your brain is really capable of.

I've done the mind-hacking challenges in the book, and they are both practical and powerful. Not only are these exercises practical, the author believes in the power of the message and the concept of open source that this book is actually available in total on his website: https://www.mindhacki.ng/. That's powerful stuff. Happy hacking!
