You Should Buy This. I Am.
I'm planning to read "True Enough" by Farhad Manjoo on some upcoming flight in the next month or so. (Only time I can possibly justify the luxury of reading these days. Sob.) It's not because he gave me such a glowing review last May, although it does convince me he knows a thing or two about good books. (Har) it's actually about a topic core to all the changes the media is grappling with as an industry. Here's a review from CrunchNotes.
New Book
An unforgettable portrait of the emerging world's entrepreneurial dynamos Brilliant, Crazy, Cocky is the story about that top 1% of people who do more to change their worlds through greed and ambition than politicians, NGOs and nonprofits ever can. This new breed of self-starter is taking local turmoil and turning it into opportunities, making millions, creating thousands of jobs and changing the face of modern entrepreneurship at the same time. To tell this story, Lacy spent forty weeks traveling through Asia, South America and Africa hunting down the most impressive up-and-comers the developed world has never heard of....yet.
