“People who have decades of experience with a job and it’s tools have a ‘curse of knowledge,’” Zeglin said. “In short, they have no idea how much of what they know needs to be explained to people with less experience. Even the terminology that we use requires defining. I think this book is a huge step toward breaking that curse.”
