review 1: I did enjoy the book and found it interesting. It highlighted many interesting areas for introspection. The main reason I gave it 3 stars though is it really does not provide any decent advice other than "know thyself". Given certain motivations etc it tells you what may happen in the future and may help shape early decisions that you make for the better but that would be the best case scenario. Without all the supporting examples and repetition it could have been written in about 25 pages.
review 2: Very good book, easy to read given the topic. Mostly based on research, and where not, is clearly stated.The book covers a lot of grounds for startups from co-fouding, to hiring first people, getting investors, and selling the company. The book goes over the deci... moresions founders will face and how they affect long term value or control of the company.I would not recommend an eBook. There were a lot of footnotes and end of book notes, some of which I felt were really important. Having the book in eBook format made it difficult to read those notes and get the full potential of the book. less
