How to Say Goodbye
Buy on Amazon"Going back to your book, How to Say Goodbye, so I have to admit the first time I opened it, I was in a completely wrong frame of mind. I was under a little bit of deadline pressure; I was in a work mode, okay?"

Buy on Amazon"And the irony of this book, I think it's kind of funny. It's called How to Say Goodbye, and I'd grab it off the shelf and be like, 'Oh, it's going to tell me how to do this thing.'"
Think Like a Freak
Buy on Amazon"It's interesting because in the book that Stephen Dubner and I wrote called Think Like a Freak, we talk about the business context. One of the things we say is nobody ever in a business context says, 'I don't know.'"
How to Say Goodbye
