Where I heard about it
- A reply to @WillManidis — named in answer to his question “what is the single best book you can read that will explain an entire industry?” in a thread on X, June 2025.
- An account I follow — recommended it again in a July 2025 post. The account is protected, so it is deliberately not named or linked here.
Connections
