'An urgent read … Karl Popper for the 21st century.'
*Robert Phillips, former CEO, Edelman EMEA and author of Trust me,
PR is Dead*
'Heffernan is ... a deft storyteller ... Bad "smart thinking" books
offer 2x2 matrices and jargon; good ones offer theory and evidence.
Heffernan steps outside the caregory entirely. She wants us to
engage with the particularities of people, places and the problems
they faced – to empathise with them, reflect on our own lives
and our own careers, and to draw our own
conclusions. Uncharted is ... wise and appealingly
human.'
