Book Reviews of Founders at Work: Stories of Startups' Early Days (Recipes: a Problem-Solution Ap)

Book Review: A great and inspiring read
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a very readable book that will give anyone interested in founding or working for a startup a lot of food for thought. I especially liked the mix of founder that the author chose, from pre-internet tech companies like Apple and Adobe, through internet 1.0 giants like Lycos, and all the way up to HotOrNot and other young upstarts.
