Book Review – An Astronaut’s Guide to Life On Earth, Chris Hadfield

I first saw Chris Hadfield on the excellent Stargazing Live on the BBC and on the strength of that appearance I thought his book would be well worth reading. Despite his many achievements and talents, the book paints him as a humble guy who’s keen to contribute but at pains not to hinder (read his chapter on “Aim to be a Zero” and you’ll get the idea). This book has much to say on the importance of working in a team towards a common goal – I would recommend it alongside How to Win Friends and Influence People for anyone embarking on life in the corporate world.
