review 1: The single most inspiring book I've ever read. Mr. Yunus has lifted and is still lifting hundreds of people out of poverty, and is the most deserving recipient of a Nobel Peace Prize I can think of."Dreams are made out of impossibles. We cannot reach the impossibles by using the analytical minds trained to deal with hard information that is currently available. These minds are fitted with flashing red lights to warn us about obstacles we may face. We'll have to put our minds in a different mode when we think about our future. We'll have to dare to make bold leaps to make the impossible possible."
review 2: Finally finished this book...not because it was particularly hard to get through, but because I've had an unhealthy addiction to candy crush. I wish I had re... moread Yunus' previous books prior to this way, because as he explains in the book, he builds upon some of the theories, cases, and stories that he has described in previous books in this one. Social business in and of itself is an interesting concept and an attractive one, although logistically, it still seems to have some kinks to work out before it can become a legitimate sector. Book overall was interesting, but I will definitely be picking up the other Yunus books and reading through some more of the foundational theories and concepts. less
