4.0 out of 5 stars Crofts Craft, 28 Feb 2005
By A Customer
This is a book for thinkers, rather than doers. That's not a problem if you enjoy a good and challenging read. If you're looking for step-by-step pointers on how to create and run your perfect business, prepare for disappointment. The book's subtitle isn't quite as authentic as it might be; it's more of a "why to" than a "how to".

Will this book inspire you to get on with launching your authentic business? Maybe, though I suspect most readers have taken that first step of thinking there has to be something fairer, better, more ethical and less oppressive out there. Will this book make you think more clearly and definitively about launching your authetic business? Yes, absolutely.

2.0 out of 5 stars A one chapter book, 17 May 2009
By Julian Dodson "Catalyst for change" (Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is another business book based on a great idea, that only needs one chapter to explain that idea. The remainder of the book adds nothing new.

If the idea doesn't justify a whole book - please just sell me a chapter.
