The Art of the Start: The Time-Tested, Battle-Hardened Guide for Anyone Starting Anything

The Art of the Start is a great book because it inspires. Guy Kawasaki, the author, does tell you how to build a convincing vision, a convincing pitch. It is not about writing a 40-page business plan. It is about the “value of making meaning� which may induce making money. The book is clear, simple and once you have read it, you will not see things the same way� go, run and buy it!
A brief quote from the book which illustrates why start-ups are important.
“Innovation often originates outside existing organizations, in part because successful organizations acquire a commitment to the status quo and a resistance to ideas that might change it� - Nathan Rosenberg.
