    I'm thinking about adding it to my recommended reading list for my Portfolio Development students.

    That sounds like a great idea, Pap! 
    The thing I really love about Rubin's book is that what he writes about can be applies to pretty much anything we do.  It's amazing that way-  and you can get a bit of this from what he says in the clip.  And thanks for posting it!

    Found this little gem recently and just started it.  Kapuściński was an amazing journalist.  This will no doubt be a quick but excellent read.

    Great book, to say the least.
