Book Review: Only the Paranoid Survive
Flipkart.com is a great way to shop book Amazon style in India. They accept COD too along with credit cards. Which is great if you know what book do you want to buy.
This books is great, take in note that this book was written pre Google and Youtube era. It talks about Strategic Inflection Point things that make underdogs bigger, stronger and better. Groove talks about changes in following that makes/breaks companies
- Competition
- Technology
- Customer
- Supplier
- Complements
- Regulations
Its interesting how he puts Strategic Inflection Point in perspective, both when it broke Intel (Competition from Japanese Memory manufacturers) and when it made Intel (Change in buying patterns in PC era).
Overall its a must read for techies and nerds alike. I would rate this book 4/5. Not a bad read.
