Rework: Change The Way You Work Forever : Change The Way You Work Forever

As someone else has said, this book isn't for you if you're looking for a 300-page-biography or the success story of 37Signals.

Jason & David give you some great nuggets of information — practical and usable — that a startup, or any business, can benefit from. I'd recommend this book, yep. It has information you'll consume in less than a day but every page you'll read has actionable information, no filler or fluff.

Flipkart's service, as always, is top notch.

Book gives practical thoughts to change the things we normally do in our workplace and business setups and explains "how it is right or wrong?".

The book being written by entrepreneurs of software industry does not mean that tips given on the book is geeky and meant for I.T. industry. This book is well-written and targeted to all the audience and applicable to any business setups.

There are mainly 12 chapters with multiple sub-sections which feel like separate chapters on its own. You may be tempted to pick and read in between but if you do that you will not be able to complete the book in time. You must read it in sequential order. Out of 279 pages 30% to 45% of pages are filled with full-page illustrations and fly-papers. So book can be read in fast-paced manner since it contains less printed content and is a very small book. But I feel it is better to read each sub-chapters slowly and try to digest what the writers are trying to imply to you and so you can decide whether it makes sense to you or not.

Flipkart service was awesome has ever.

Design is ultimately about making choices, and in order to make good choices, you must know exactly what you want. Your personal design philosophy will impact every aspect of your work, so it’s best to identify it as explicitly as possible.

37signals is a small firm in Chicago that specializes in creating web applications for small businesses like Backpack, Basecamp, and Highrise. In Rework, the programmers and designers behind 37signals share their philosophy: stay small, embrace constraints, and build less.

In Rework, you’ll learn why features are overrated; why taking outside funding should be your last resort; why staying small and flexible is preferable to growing a company quickly; why constant iteration is important; and why real prototypes are always better than design documents.

Regardless of whether you agree or disagree with the specific philosophy 37signals details in Rework, you’ll find it very useful as you develop your own

This book won't disappoint you if you are looking for some great advices, but I bought this book thinking that I will have a nice success story of 37 signals. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP Dissapointed :(
The book is Fat, but the huge font size and blank pages if reduced will bring the content to around 40 to 50 pages.

The book challenges the notions of business and working style, best suited for entrepreneurs, business owners and even aspiring and useful for those working in salaried jobs. Its easy to consume in short reads as each chapter is not more than 2-3 pages and has large fonts. Also, each chapter is preceded by a full page sketch highlighting the concept of the chapter. Hence, don't get intimidated by the thickness of the book and just read it!
