While recapping concepts from the 7 habits this book reinforces and provides the next steps in practical application.
If you liked the 7 habits you will enjoy this. Covey narration an excellent touch.

Story
The most influential work of the entire Spanish literary canon and a founding work of modern Western literature, Don Quixote is also one of the greatest works ever written. Hugely entertaining but also moving at times, this episodic novel is built on the fantasy life of one Alonso Quixano, who lives with his niece and housekeeper in La Mancha. Quixano, obsessed by tales of knight errantry, renames himself ‘Don Quixote’ and with his faithful servant Sancho Panza, goes on a series of quests.

Stephen R.

Celebrating its 15th year of helping people solve personal and professional problems, this special anniversary edition includes a new foreword and afterword written by Covey that explore whether the 7 Habits are still relevant and answer some of the most common questions he has received over the past 15 years.

A somewhat interesting insight
Reviewed: 15-03-2015
What started out as an interesting insight into the prison system turned into a somewhat boring storyline at times.
It would have been interesting to compare and contrast her life before and after this experience however this was not part of the story unfortunately.
