<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"With a new foreword by Shimon Peres and afterword by the authors."--Cover.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>What the world can learn from Israel's meteoric economic success.</b><br> Start-Up Nation addresses the trillion dollar question: How is it that Israel -- a country of 7.1 million, only 60 years old, surrounded by enemies, in a constant state of war since its founding, with no natural resources-- produces more start-up companies than large, peaceful, and stable nations like Japan, China, India, Korea, Canada and the UK? <p/> With the savvy of foreign policy insiders, Senor and Singer examine the lessons of the country's adversity-driven culture, which flattens hierarchy and elevates informality-- all backed up by government policies focused on innovation. In a world where economies as diverse as Ireland, Singapore and Dubai have tried to re-create the Israel effect, there are entrepreneurial lessons well worth noting. As America reboots its own economy and can-do spirit, there's never been a better time to look at this remarkable and resilient nation for some impressive, surprising clues.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Kirkus</b></i><br><br><b>Publishers Weekly</b></i><br><br>George Stephanopoulos</b>, <i><b>anchor of ABC's "This Week"</b></i><br><br>No one else, in my judgment, has written regularly about Israel in recent years with more clarity than Singer.--<b>William Kristol</b>, <i><b>Editor of The Weekly Standard</b></i><br><br>Saul Singer's <i>Confronting Jihad</i> should be mandatory reading for anyone, layman or expert, interested in the real Middle East.--<b>Michael Oren</b>, <i><b>historian and bestselling author of Six Days of War</b></i><br><br>START-UP NATION</b> is a playbook for every CEO who wants to develop the next generation of corporate leaders. <p/>Tom Brokaw</b>, <i><b>Special correspondent for NBC News, and bestselling author of The Greatest Generation</b></i><br><br>START-UP NATION</b> is... a timely book and a much-needed celebration of the entrepreneurial spirit.<br>Meg Whitman</b>, <i><b>former CEO of eBay</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dan Senor</b>, Adjunct Senior Fellow for Middle East Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, has been on the front lines of policy, politics, and business in the Middle East.
