I thought this is a great book, I liked the authors style of real case studies and examples of how businesses leverage there exisiting assets and skills to grow profits, very good point and idea sparks of how us business owners can leverage more money out of even an exisiting limited market if we get creative,

This is a great read that I read for a business class in college. I like the plain and simple approach the author took to problems faced by many large companies in our country. A worthy read for anyone headed for a career in business.
