While I was maintaining the ManageWithoutThem.com website (about 1999 – 2010 for the bulk of it) I also write a draft “Manage Without Them” book that remains incomplete.
You can read the draft on Dropbox here.
I write these books – and never complete them – mainly to get my thoughts half straight.
If my thoughts are half straight I have enough of a mental model to contribute in collaboration, but I haven’t settled my thinking so much that I become inflexible because I think I already understand everything.
Well, that’s my excuse for now finishing the book anyway … 🙂
There are other incomplete books for the same reason.
