Description

We're often told that we're living amidst a startup boom.

Typically, we think of apps built by college kids and funded by venture capital firms, which remake fortunes and economies overnight.

But in reality, most new businesses are things like restaurants or hair salons.

Entrepreneurs aren't all millennials -- more often, it's their parents. And those small companies are the fabric of our economy. The Soul of an Entrepreneur is a business book of a different kind, exploring our work but also our passions and hopes.

David Sax reports on the deeply personal questions of entrepreneurship: why an immigrant family risks everything to build a bakery; how a small farmer fights to manage his debt; and what it feels like to rise and fall with a business you built for yourself. This book is the real story of entrepreneurship. It confronts both success and failure, and shows how they can change a human life.

It captures the inherent freedom that entrepreneurship brings, and why it matters.
