Sherlock Holmes is a name that most people will recognize; the super-sleuth has entertained generations with his incredible eye for detail, encyclopaedic memory and superior skills of deduction. But aside from the simple enjoyment of reading about his thrilling adventures, what can we learn from the world’s preeminent fictional detective?

A Few Lessons from Sherlock Holmes distils the Sherlockian canon into bite-sized principles and useful quotes. Author Peter Bevelin masterfully presents these selected excerpts in a way that gives the text even greater meaning and depth, which narrator Steve White conveys perfectly in this newly-produced audio presentation.

With advice we can all benefit from, for both our business lives and our personal ones, this is the perfect addition to anyone’s collection. Whether you’re a dedicated Sherlock Holmes fan or just a casual reader, there’s no doubt you’ll benefit from A Few Lessons from Sherlock Holmes.
