Every interaction is a performance, whether you're speaking up in a meeting, pitching a client, or walking into a job interview.

Story
Continuously available in print since 1968, this novel has become embedded in progressive anti-racist culture with wide circulation of the book and hotly debated film. A literary classic, The Spook Who Sat by the Door is a strong comment on entrenched racial inequities in the United States in the late 1960s. With its focus on the “militancy” that characterized the Black Power movement of the 1960s and 1970s, this is the story of one man’s reaction to ruling-class hypocrisy.

The retired four-star general and and best-selling author of My Share of the Task shares a powerful new leadership model. Former General Stanley McChrystal held a key position for much of the War on Terror, as head of the Joint Special Operations Command. In Iraq, he found that despite the vastly superior resources, manpower, and training of the US Military, Al Qaeda had an advantage because of its structure as a loose network of small, independent cells. To defeat such an agile enemy, JSOC had to change its focus from efficiency to adaptability.

The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. And the next Mark Zuckerberg won't create a social network. If you are copying these guys, you aren't learning from them. It's easier to copy a model than to make something new: doing what we already know how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But every time we create something new, we go from 0 to 1.

It's an axiom of business that great companies grow their revenues and profits year after year. Yet quietly, under the radar, a small number of companies have rejected the pressure of endless growth to focus on more satisfying business goals. Goals like being great at what they do, creating a great place to work, providing great customer service, making great contributions to their communities, and finding great ways to lead their lives. In Small Giants, veteran journalist Bo Burlingham takes us deep inside 14 such remarkable companies.

Publisher's Summary
There are laws of nature, so why shouldn’t there be laws of marketing?
As Al Ries and Jack Trout - the world-renowned marketing consultants and best-selling authors of Positioning - note, you can build an impressive airplane, but it will never leave the ground if you ignore the laws of physics, especially gravity. Why then, they ask, shouldn’t there also be laws of marketing that must be followed to launch and maintain winning brands? In The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing, Ries and Trout offer a compendium of 22 innovative rules for understanding and succeeding in the international marketplace. From the Law of Leadership, to The Law of the Category, to The Law of the Mind, these valuable insights stand the test of time and present a clear path to successful products. Violate them at your own risk.

No longer relevant
The author’s attempts to predict the future of marketing and business were very wrong in many instances. The world of marketing has evolved beyond what most of these laws preach, rendering them irrelevant and possibly even damaging to follow. Take these laws with a grain of salt, do yourself a favour and read more recently published books on marketing.

Outdated & Wrong
Some of this book is good, don’t get me wrong. A good third of the book, however, is the authors’ repeated assertion that a bunch of businesses will fail because they opted for a line extension strategy (this was written decades ago), and in 2021 many of those companies are now the market leaders in their industries. The companies whose strategies they praised are invariably gone (often acquired by the companies the authors said were going to fail). There’s logic to what the authors claim from a late-80s / early-90s perspective, but many of these laws of marketing have since been… muted.

The 22 laws are solid, but the reasoning is weak
I say the 22 laws likely hold true in practice, but the author's supporting arguments are far from scientific. Huge conclusions drawn from a lot of vague data - eg. "they changed their marketing and 8 years later started to decline".
Still worth reading though.

Highly recommended, but could use an update.
This is one of those books hat everyone says you need to read in marketing or business, and having now listened to it,I would have to agree. That said though, I would love to read or listen to an up to date version of this book.
Many of the companies and examples that they use are in a very different position than they were when this was written, and while we can still learn so much from their history, a lot has changed in the marketing industry. In particular, I would love to hear what they have to say about the rise of social media and digital marketing, as well as a boom in startups and accessibility.
Furthermore, in my opinion, you can't write a current book on marketing and business and not talk about Google.

Needs Updating
Most of the core content is solid but it's badly in need of a revised version. Originally written around 1992 so their examples of success are antiquated. When one of their examples of a "poorly" created marketing strategy of a company that "probably will struggle" is Microsoft....it makes you question everything they say.

Outdated!
Book contains some decent advice but the examples given throughout the book are so outdated and many have proven to be wrong over the past 20 years, that they immediately put into question the theories the authors propose to be laws. Because of how old the book is, it also completely disregards how marketing has changed with the rise of the internet

Would've been outdated in the 1600s
They somehow stretched one sentence: "occupy a unique place in the minds of consumers", which had already been stretched into an entire book (Positioning) into 22 rules. Although to be fair, they did also include a few terrible generalisations (every market becomes a 2 horse race eventually) and clichés (don't get arrogant) for good measure.

I've read several marketing books before and browsed through thousands of articles, but this one is my favorite so far. Well structured and defined, providing great examples from the real world, focusing on the specific rules that you need to follow in order to prevent failure.

This book is obviously (painfully) from the early 90s, but it makes the references more fun (especially Donald Trump as a failure). However, the laws ring true. Past success can lead to future failure. This books laws apply to humans period, not just marketing. It's invaluable.
