The first time I read it, it changed my life, even though I didn't understand a few things. The second time I read it, I marveled at how much I hadn't understood the first time. By now, I've read it five or six times, and I *think* I understand it all, but I'll read it a few more times just to be sure (and to once again be entertained --- it's a very entertaining book). After reading "The Goal", you'll never be the same. Once you've read it, the first time you have a slow program and some cretin blurts out that you should write it in C instead of Python, you'll have to try very hard to keep from laughing. I write productivity enhancement books for a living, and have a lot of feedback about how my books helped peoples careers. But, before reading my books, I'd recommend you spend your next $20 reading "The Goal". It's the biggest bang for your reading buck that you'll ever encounter.
