First sentence: The snippets of nonsense in this book will either make you think, ‘Hmm, that makes sense’, or ‘What nonsense’.
Description: Nonsense side-tracks you from your work, tricks you into wrong decisions, and trips you up short of your goals.  Nonsense stops you from being successful.

Nonsense is always at work.  It never stops.  That’s the bad news.  The good news is that there is always some sense in nonsense, if you look for it.  And if you are willing to look for it, time and again you will find that you can make the nonsense at work – work for you.

Making sense of nonsense requires you to use both left and right brain modes of thinking.  The book is designed to help you to react intuitively to what you read on the right-hand pages and think carefully about it on the left-hand pages.

The 35 specific bits of nonsense are arranged in sections covering perceptions, goals, team work, organizations, leadership, culture and workers.
