Summary: The Starfish and the Spider: Review and Analysis of Brafman and Beckstrom's Book

This was a life and major time saver. Wish ALL books had one.

That is a great view about 3.0 business model.

Overall I enjoyed this quick read. It provided the central ideas without too much extra fluff. The quotes directly from the authors gave me their perspective even without reading everything they had written.Reviews for the book's ideas...interesting. There are examples that made sense but it appears that many non-starfish examples were intentionally left out. It seemed that the authors were looking for starfish successes and thus they were able to find them. Also in looking for spider failures they were able to find those examples too, but a few anecdotes did not adequately prove their hypothesis convincingly.

Enjoyed it, this was worth the read to gain a perspective on this awesome idea. I am currently involved in an organization that is Decentralized and it has been enjoy a large growth.

Very helpful for a book review.
