Write-up

In my opinion, this was a very boring read because we know the content at some subconscious level but the thoughts & reminders that it surfaces is very valuable.

Negotiation is in every aspect of life; it will be worth revisiting this book in the future. 119-130 is a good reenactment of negotiation. The end of the book summarizes the content into 10 questions.
