imposter-roadmap's Introduction

General Feedback for The Imposter's Playbook.

I'm tracking issues, feedback, corrections and general whatever here in this repository. The book itself is not available here, unfortunately.

Found an issue?

I really do love and appreciate you for taking the time to help! It's pretty difficult to log typos/etc so if you could please add as much information as possible I'd truly appreciate it! There are issue templates so if you could follow one of those I'd appreciate it.

What's the problem?

This is what I read:

The 48 Laws of Power, which I mentioned above

A search for "48 Laws" starting here going backwards gets us to page 577. I encountered the section on page 43 where you mention "The Laws of Power" and it seemed to be missing something.

I love and hate this book at the same time.

I was confused here as I didn't recall the mention of a book at this point. Maybe something was deleted unintentionally?

What's the problem?

This is what I read:

While this is a fragment in the middle of a sentence so doesn't strictly break the "don't end with a preposition" rule, it may still be a case of unnecessary double preposition.
