Book Summary:

This is a book about creation.  Creating something new.  Every time we create something new, we go from Zero to One.  It’s creating something new or developing a new way of doing something.  This world is available to everyone, not just the privileged kids at Stanford or those with access to Venture Capital, EVERYONE.

“If you’ve invented something new but you haven’t invented an effective way to sell it, you have a bad business — no matter how good the product.”.  ~ Peter Thiel
