I am undergoing surgery tomorrow. Nothing serious, I don’t think.
But if my output slows or stops, you may assume they have inadvertantly performed a blogoscopy.
I’ll get back to business as soon as corrective surgery can be arranged.
Business Week calls it one of "the best innovation and design books of 2009"
800 CEO Read holds it as one of the best "Big Ideas" book for 2009
“Building on decades of eye-opening research into the culture of consumption, Grant McCracken demonstrates why many companies get blindsided by cultural factors that were hidden in plain view, and offers a compelling argument for why they need to bring cultural expertise into their executive suite. Here’s hoping more corporate executives hear his call.” — Henry Jenkins, author, Convergence Culture: Where Old and New Media Collide
“The title of this book is a lie. It's not merely for companies that decide they need a Chief Culture Officer, or even just for those who aspire to that job. It's for you. Right now. If your job involves marketing, inventing, selling or simply investing in companies that make stuff, this book is a must read.” — Seth Godin, author of Tribes & Purple Cow

I just read your Oprah/surgery story (in C+C:II) laughing in terror at the suffering, or at least the way you related the details. I hope you don't get on any planes or TV shows in the next few days!

Good luck, Grant! Anytime knives are involved in the absence of steaks, anything can happen!
