1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid at all costs, 7 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I have many of Martin's other books and I found this one is not worth reading. It has very flowery language, poor composition and lacks depth in the subject matter.

Martin does a disservice to the Internet and to his readers. Bottom line - avoid at all costs. Sorry.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little dated but very insightful., 7 Feb 1999
By A Customer
Provided an in-depth discussion of trends in the information technology industry and their impact on organizational culture. The book is a little dated. However, the topics are very insightful.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Disappointing, 2 Sep 1998
By A Customer
After all the hype I'd looked forward to this book. However, it was a real disappointment.

When he wasn't contradicting himself he was rewriting sections of his own or other's work. There were no new concepts or ideas in here, nor much about what you were supposed to do with the ones he did suggest.

It sort of read like a Tom Peters book, only without the energy, enthusiasm or vision.

Bottom line: avoid.
