The Power of Moments

Chip Heath · 2017
84/100
👍 Worth It

Chip and Dan Heath identify something genuinely useful here — that peak experiences have a structure you can actually engineer — and they back it up with compelling research and vivid examples that span hospitals, classrooms, and family vacations. The rare criticism of occasional repetition and anecdotal lean is fair but minor against how much practical insight the book delivers.
