Title: This book has nothing new
Review: In this book, you won't find something new about Bill Gates and his way of doing business. Wikipedia provides better information about this man. If you really wish to understand in details how Microsoft works as a business, get "Microsoft 2.0" by Mary Jo Foley, and the books by Bill Gates: "The Road Ahead" and "Business @ Speed of Thought".The main conclusion of the author is that Bill Gates, essentially, is doing "creative imitation", as defined by Peter Drucker in his book "Innovation and Entrepreneurship".I agree with Des Dearlove about the "creative imitation", although he doesn't use this term. I suggest you to read the Drucker's book to better understand the technique and advantages of creative imitation.As about "Big Shots: Business the Bill Gates Way", I don't recommend reading it. Just read Wikipedia and the books above mentioned.
