I found this to be an easily-accessible and inspirational book for those needing a push to re-frame their mindset about life changes and risk-taking. There are many examples of Stanford's d.school program assignments that teach students to think outside the box, and while I felt like merely a spectator reading what are undoubtedly hands-on exercises for learning, I still came away with the follow-your-passion and nothing-ventured-nothing-gained message. These examples are reinforced with tales from entrepreneurial kingpins and a few job interview stories.
