Review of 'Slack' on 'Goodreads'

The first (about slack) and last chapters (about risk and risk management) were particularly insightful.
The author makes a strong argument in favor of downtime and including it in estimates.
The risk management approach was completely new to me and I clicked with it immediately.

Middle chapters were boring (probably because it was aimed mostly at managers).
