In this unique look at the life and work of W.

This book looks are stories of Deming's life, from his work with the real-life Rosie the Riveter to a hacker writing US cybersecurity law. Together, this biography tells a story of ingenuity and how one man's thinking changed how we think in the modern world.
Part business history, part biography, part journey into deep business sense, this book is rich in knowledge and chock full of takeaways.
