A reference book for budding entrepreneurs
Steve Blank is one of the writers, thought leaders whose articles I love to read. The start up journey is a roller coaster ride, and the worst and best part is that you have only yourself to blame for the journey and you have to be brutally honest about the decisions you make. Having founded a company and run it for nine years before taking exit, trying for moonshot I have faced the challenges first hand. This book deconstructs the decision making process in founding a start-up and brings in the real practical life stuff in textbook. Its a treasure for any entrepreneur and much needed in 21st century economics.

Worth a lot more than its price
This is a manual and not something that you read once and leave. It answers most questions a first time founder would face. Whichever phase of starting up you are in, this book will provide you with the necessary insight. Also you should do the course 'How to build a startup' on Udacity by Steve Blank himself. Study this book, get your asses of the ground, go out there and make it big.

Steve Blank's teachings are very very useful. You can even subscribe to his newsletters from his website. If only reading out aloud i.e. Text-To-Speech could be smoother and well integrated with Kindle App for PC, it would be great. I have installed the Version "KindleForPC-Accessibility-installer-1.14.43034" and further installed NVDA for Text to Speech as Windows Narrator was not showing up when required.
