"An engaging polemic against the neat-police who hold so much
sway over our lives." -The Wall Street Journal Enthusiastically
embraced by readers everywhere, this groundbreaking book is an
antidote to the accepted wisdom that tight schedules, neatness, and
consistency are the keys to success. With an astounding array of
anecdotes and case studies of the useful role mess can play in
business, parenting, cooking, the war on terrorism, hardware
stores, and even the meteoric career of Arnold Schwarzenegger,
coauthors Abrahamson and Freedman demonstrate that moderately messy
systems use resources more efficiently, yield better solutions, and
are harder to break than neat ones. From clutter to time sprawl to
blurring of categories, A PERFECT MESS will forever change the way
we think about disorder. "A compelling and comical tour of
humanity''s guilt-ridden love affair with accidents, messes, and
randomness... Combine the world-is-not-as-it-seems mindset of
Freakonomics with the delicious celebration of popular culture
found in Everything Bad Is Good for You to get the
cocktail-party-chatter-ready anecdotes of ''messiness leading to
genius'' in A PERFECT MESS." -Fast Company
