    Go to Google. Type Warren Buffet quotes. Cut & paste what you find. Have someone record them. Let idiots like me download it thinking I was going to get something interesting and relevant. In short, don't bother.

    As each new generation of entrepreneurs emerges, there is a renewed interest in how venture capital deals come together. Yet there really is no definitive guide to venture capital deals. Nobody understands this better than authors Brad Feld and Jason Mendelson. For more than seventeen years, they've been involved in hundreds of venture capital financings, and now, with Venture Deals, they share their experiences in this field with you.

    Story

    If you run or even work at a small company that has or intends to raise money from venture capitalists or angel investors, then this book is a must listen. It delivers exactly what it says it will which is to explain in very clear language, the ins & outs of venture financings.

    At its core, The Power of Habit contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly, losing weight, raising exceptional children, becoming more productive, building revolutionary companies and social movements, and achieving success is understanding how habits work. Habits aren’t destiny. As Charles Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives.

    Story

    Take perhaps 60 minutes worth of relevant information and then s-t-r-e-t-c-h it out over 12 or so hours with useless fluff. Unless you have amazing patience, I'd strongly pass on this book. "Outliers" is a far better choice if you are looking for a way to understand human behavior.
