>His book on developing Singapore is one of the most interesting books I've ever read.

Seconded, if we read the same book. Was it a really thick one, say a few inches thick?

I remember taking it home from the company library, and reading it over several days.

Yea, I loved the book as well (without commenting on where I agreed or disagreed with him; agreeing or not, great read and full of insight.)

And yes it is huge. It is a few inches thick. Maybe 2 or 3 inches thick.

Then sibling post saying it is 8mm thick is misguided or confusing his units. He did say he read it on his phone so maybe that's the thickness of his phone ;)

Coincidentally, I just bought two copies to gift to friends who are in serious leadership positions.

It was only ~8 mm thick, but I read it on my iphone. The book is a few inches thick for sure. It's an amazing read.
