Good summary but sound quality sucks. Get the original it's under three hours. Much better value

Annoying Narrative
The narrator says "quote" and "unquote" frequently to the point that it is distracting and annoying. Returning the summary for the actual book.
Oviously this is the work of someone else and it is a summary. It is not copyright or plagiarism to not say "quote unquote" every time you quote an idea. Horrible.

Do it! This is How
Narration: Clear. Not particularly inspirational but good enough.
Content: Solid overview of book's structure and recommendations. Make sense. Most of us have heard these guidelines before, but occasional review serves as useful reminders and prompts.
