Alec MacGillis’ Fulfillment is not another inside account or exposé of our most conspicuously dominant company. Rather, it is a literary investigation of the America that falls within that company’s growing shadow. As MacGillis shows, Amazon’s sprawling network of delivery hubs, data centers, and corporate campuses epitomizes a land where winner and loser cities and regions are drifting steadily apart, the civic fabric is unraveling, and work has become increasingly rudimentary and isolated.

I liked how the book explained how the last twenty or more years has changed how people shop, work and survive with facts and documentation before and after the internet.

Donald Trump is unlike any president we've ever had. He is the only person ever elected to be commander in chief who has not first held public office or served as a general in the military. His principles grow out of five decades of business and celebrity success - not politics - so he behaves differently from traditional politicians.

Newt's Brilliant But It's Not The Title

Not what I expected

I did not like this book because it was not how to understand Trump, but a big campaign to buy in to his way of doing things. It was the opposite of what it was advertised to be. I listened to the whole thing hoping it would get better and it just got worse and worse in my opinion as the word understand was not defined as I understood the word to mean.
The worst part was when the disability or disabled were totally misunderstood in that people with disabilities were assumed they could work. They may not be able to work, in that their disability will not allow them to not that they are lazy and won't. That idea has been the bane of people with special needs, disabilities forever.
I plan on returning this book and getting my money back.
Fortunately Audible will refund and are a company that keeps their word.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 78
When James Everard announced that he had invited a young lady home for the holidays, his father, the Earl of Gyllford, was astounded and skeptical. Could it be that Jamie was finally showing an interest in something other than horseplay with his friends? But when lovely Miss Evalyn Pennington arrived at Gyllford Manor, it was the earl who found himself inexplicably drawn to her winsome beauty. Having been dismissed from her post as a governess, Evalyn would long remember the kindness of being welcomed at Gyllford Manor when she had nowhere else to turn.

Not so great

The strong accent did not help. Too much wondering around the plot.
But that is only my opinion.
