micro-rave by rds- this latest work by teresa esser is
extremely inspiring, very readable; is immediately useful
and tells the stories of several recent and ongoing tech
start-up cases. a significantly more humane treatment of
struggling thinkers, engineers, managers and end-users than
any work by rob ryan and many other well known authors ...
from the back cover-
takes you inside the minds of technology entrepreneurs ...
- guy kawasaki, ceo, garage technology ventures
eureka! esser has found it - the essence of high-tech venturing -
and delivered it in a great, empowering book ... reveals
in detail the angst and exuberance of the entrepreneurial mind ...
must reading (and re-reading) ...
- paul bottino, exec dir, tech & e-ship center, harvard
with great stories and wise advice, teresa esser walks readers
through the thicket of starting a company. if you're a fledgling
high-tech entrepreneur, you'd do well to have a copy
of this book.
- damiel pink, author of _free agent nation_
demystifies the venture capital industry and the entrepreneurial mind.
- howard anderson, co-founder, battery venture capital, and
founding partner & senior managing director, yankeetech ventures
great conversation, big ideas to 'change the world,' tips on how
to make it happen ... truly fun to read and most valuable for any
tech-oriented entrepreneur.
- stan davis, author of _lessons from the future_ and
co-author of _blur_
