Zero to One

Author: Peter Thiel, Blake Masters

In “Zero to One,” Peter Thiel challenges conventional wisdom about innovation and entrepreneurship. Drawing from his experiences as a PayPal co-founder and venture capitalist, Thiel argues that true progress comes from creating something entirely new—going from zero to one—rather than iterating on existing ideas. He offers provocative insights on building successful startups, fostering a culture of innovation, and navigating the complexities of modern business. Thiel’s contrarian perspective and sharp analysis make this book a thought-provoking guide for aspiring entrepreneurs and anyone interested in shaping the future.

Brilliant thinking is rare, but courage is in even shorter supply than genius.
