In The Icarus Deception" Seth Godins most inspiring book he challenges readers to find the courage to treat their work as a form of art. Everyone knows that Icarus father made him wings & told him not to fly too close to the sun; he ignored the warning & plunged to his doom. The lesson: Play it safe. Listen to the experts. It was the perfect propaganda for the industrial economy. What boss wouldnt want employees to believe that obedience & conformity are the keys to success? But we tend to forget that Icarus was also warned not to fly too low because seawater would ruin the lift in his wings. Flying too low is even more dangerous than flying too high because it feels deceptively safe. The safety zone has moved. Conformity no longer leads to comfort. But the good news is that creativity is scarce & more valuable than ever. So is choosing to do something unpredictable & brave: Make art. Being an artist isnt a genetic disposition or a specific talent. Its an attitude we can all adopt. Its a hunger to seize new ground make connections & work without a map. If you do those things youre an artist no matter what it says on your business card. Godin shows us how its possible & convinces us why its essential.

The book was developed from chapter V of the Tenth Revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases & Related Health Problems (ICD-10). The clinical descriptions & diagnostic guidelines were finalized after field testing by over 700 clinicians & researchers in 110 institutes in 40 countries making this book the product of the largest ever research effort designed to improve psychiatric diagnosis. Every effort has been made to define categories whose existence is scientifically justifiable as well as clinically useful. The classification divides disorders into ten groups according to major common themes or descriptive likeness a new feature which makes for increased convenience of use. For each disorder the book provides a full description of the main clinical features & all other important but less specific associated features. Diagnostic guidelines indicate the number balance & duration of symptoms usually required before a confident diagnosis can be made. Inclusion & exclusion criteria are also provided together with conditions to be considered in differential diagnosis. The guidelines are worded so that a degree of flexibility is retained for diagnostic decisions in clinical work particularly in the situation where provisional diagnosis may have to be made before the clinical picture is entirely clear or information is complete... . As befitting a publication of considerable influence the amount of work that went into preparing ICD-10 has been formidable..."
