It always came across as being incredibly simplified to me. There are some tenets that they teach that are pretty obviously true, like if you raise the price on a product less people will buy it. But then, you have the phenomenon where if something is artificially made extremely expensive, like a fancy phone, people will buy it to prove that they have money. Human behavior can't really be predicted the way they make it seem.

My experience is that you can shrink every single book into 1/10th of its size. I've only tried a few of my friend's books but looking at things it seems it's all the same regarding every subject. I mean how did they even managed to create subjects like gender studies?
It's always better to learn from the experience of someone who has done it and lived it. That's why I'm a big fan of Peter Thiel's writing. He seems like the only sensible person in Silicon valley.
