I don’t know who came up with the K.I.S.S. principal, but this book personifies it. For those who don’t know what K.I.S.S. stands for "Keep It Simple Stupid." A quick search on this principal will tell you the following from Wikipedia: "When dealing with a problem, there exists a frequent tendency toward complication that can lead toward solutions that are far more burdensome than the problem, or clever solutions that don’t handle unusual cases within that problem domain. In keeping with such problem solvers, Computer Systems Analysts in times gone by were defined to be those persons who could complicate a simple problem beyond all recognition."

That is the genius of Mr. Fowler’s book. As a business man and a community leader, my experiences have revealed to me that keeping it simple is the key to success. As soon as you start to complicate matters, the sooner you will find yourself in a mess.

The subtitle of the book says it all, "A commonsense guide to building a successful insurance business." The product details clearly state that the book is only 54 pages long. It would have to be some pretty thick paper to make it look like a novel.

A smart consumer is a well informed consumer. When I buy books, I generally know what I am going to get before I buy it.

Bottom line. Sometimes we need some common sense in our lives to help us succeed. Just ask Thomas Paine.

I love the book and recommend it to anyone looking for a way to create simple order in their lives; which more often than not leads to the success so many of us crave.

This book shows the problem with internet book orders. I bought it off the title and cover. When it arrived, not only was it extremely thin (think comic book thin) but it is just pure drivel.

It is just the author wanking away about how he has had a happy life. It covers nothing at all about the insurance business. You could get more information just doing a Google search.

I give it one star because it makes a good coaster for my Dr. Pepper as I read books that give much more real world knowlege…like The Dilbert Principle.
