Sometimes achieving big things requires the ability to think small. This simple concept was the driving force that propelled the Volkswagen Beetle to become an avatar of American-style freedom, a household brand, and a global icon. The VW Bug inspired the ad men of Madison Avenue, beguiled Woodstock Nation, and has recently been re-imagined for the hipster generation. And while today it is surely one of the most recognizable cars in the world, few of us know the compelling details of this car’s story.

How will it fit into a life that makes you and your family happy? How will it change the world? Eventually Mark found his great idea: coconut water.

Story
Titan is the first full-length biography based on unrestricted access to Rockefeller’s exceptionally rich trove of papers. A landmark publication full of startling revelations, the book indelibly alters our image of this most enigmatic capitalist. Born the son of a flamboyant, bigamous snake-oil salesman and a pious, straitlaced mother, Rockefeller rose from rustic origins to become the world’s richest man by creating America’s most powerful and feared monopoly, Standard Oil. Branded "the Octopus" by legions of muckrakers, the trust refined and marketed nearly 90 percent of the oil produced in America.

Screw It!
Wow, Richard Branson has always been a powerful figure in the world, but never has he been so inspiring. I've lived a life working to gain and grow my own future by struggling every day to change my family tree. I don't enjoy life and I don't think globally. It's time to change that and this book has done that for me. I am excited to look for more opportunities for growth and have him to thank for that.

A very good book!
I liked it, and love Richard.
Only objection is that it features too many things already written is his autobiography.

Excellent piece of work
This is an excellent piece of factual and motivational story telling. A little repetitive in a few chapters but this mans life is a true work of innovation
It also reveals the power of drive, the essence of family and friends and most importantly the gifts and talents bestowed upon him by God even though he never acknowledges the giver of life. A truly triumphant spirit. A great read and phenomenal work

A great book about a great guy - highly recommend.
Interesting, inspiring, educational book. Sir Richard Branson sound like a very intelligent, likeable, creative and advanced thinking person. I formed a great respect for him from what I learned from this audi material.
I especially liked his positions on environmental issues. We all have to contribute, this is not someone else's problem and it appears he's doing his Lion's Share.
Really the only thing I didn't like, considering he's so much into environment, is that ha basically didn't say one word about VEGANISM, but keeps going on and on about fuel and other polluters.
VEGANISM is by far the greatest contribution a person can do to reduce, if not eliminate current environmental problems in the world.
Farming animals causes largest negative impact on environment by far greater than all worlds transportation in all of its forms combined together.
Eating a VEGAN diet and living a VEGAN lifestyle is the single best way to reduce negative impact on environment, improve own health and-for me the most important-ethically treat other sentient beings by keeping them free of horrific sufferings causes by human greed, selfishness and insensitivity.
I for sure greatly appreciate and highly recommend this book.
