“This book is fundamentally a gift. Read it! It´s like a Matryoshka that allows you to enter worlds you always wanted to discover and never could connect. David Koenig follows a tradition of thinkers like Schrödinger and Heisenberg, who dared to step out of their domain to chase the fundamental questions of life using everyday language and vivid examples. I´ll keep the personal copy for my children, grandchildren, and their children...because it´s a book for generations. And future generations will need this approach of holistic thinking and the thread they get from this book to solve the puzzles of their time.“
- Peter Rutzendorfer, Board Member and Head of Risk Management (Austria)

How do we operate 'freely' while ensuring we maintain 'liberty' for all? How do we measure 'time' and 'space?' This book is an interesting exploration of these topics from many angles as organizations and individuals think about value creation over varying time horizons."

A must-read, David explores the relationships we have with each other across various aspects of our lives. The book stimulated a broader dialogue on how we interact within society and with the environment around us. A thoroughly enjoyable read .

There is a picture of Mr. Koenig in the dictionary under both "thoughtful" and "thought-provoking." His books cause the reader actually to think about things, and the easy writing style belies the breadth and depth of the topics he discusses. Worth anyone's time reading because the book really does cause one to think. Recommended."
