If you trust what you hear in the news, America is in trouble. We`ve moved our manufacturing overseas. We`ve lost our competitive edge to China, Germany, Japan, and Brazil. We`ve entered our final days as an econonic leader.
Don`t believe it! This provocative book from a former deputy assistant secretary of commerce will explode the myths youve been fed by the media and reinforce your faith in American ingenuity. Author Ro Khanna takes you inside Washington`s economic think tanks and onto the front lines of the most innovative companies in the nation.
Despite everything you`ve heard about the economy, one fact remains: America continues to be a world leader in manufacturing. Some of the world`s best products are still being made here. The world`s greatest innovations are still being developed by Apple, Google, and countless others.
This book will prove to you that smart companies are staying ahead of the curve--and you can, too. You`ll learn how a fourth-generation business, the Globe Manufacturing Company, customized its firefighting suits to beat foreign competitors. You`ll discover how Vitamix worked with clients like Starbucks to produce a superior coffee blender. And you`ll hear behind-the-scenes stories from the American steel industry, aerospace companies, the defense technology sector, and other worldclass leaders. You`ll also learn why companies like Solyndra fail--and what lessons we can take from them.
This is more than a book. It is a wake-up call that will spark debate, shatter beliefs, and inspire action in every American who wants to succeed in the future. This is Entrepreneurial Nation.ISBN :9781259064524
