The following excerpt sums up the concept of Theil's book: "Doing what someone else already knows how to do takes the world from 1 to n, adding more of something familiar. But when you do something new, you go from 0 to 1."
從書中節(jié)選的這句話可以概括全書的理念：“做其他人已經(jīng)知道如何做的事情,，會(huì)將世界從1帶到n,，只會(huì)增加更多類似的東西。而創(chuàng)新則是從0到1的過程,�,！�

This bestseller is geared specifically towards the startup community as it offers invaluable advice on what to consider and what to avoid before moving forward. Additionally, the author offers his philosophy on business, which helps the reader generate new ideas he or she may not have considered previously.

《富足：改變?nèi)祟愇磥淼?大力量》,，作者：彼得·迪亞芒迪斯與史蒂芬·科特勒

Of note, the authors have a second book entitled Bold coming out in February 2015 that will "teach today's entrepreneurs the tools, technologies and mindsets they will need to make 'it' happen."
盡管這是一本充滿幻想的圖書，但它對(duì)目前的工業(yè)與社會(huì)趨勢(shì)及其未來走向提出了一些令人深思的質(zhì)疑與擔(dān)憂,。從創(chuàng)業(yè)者的角度來看,，作者想象中的全球挑戰(zhàn)也可以成為商業(yè)機(jī)遇。值得注意的是,，兩位作者合著的第二本書《勇敢》將在2015年2月份出版,，這本書將教會(huì)今天的創(chuàng)業(yè)者們“實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想”所需要的工具、技術(shù)和思維,。（來源：財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）
