## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very Inspirational - a quick read with resounding, thought-provoking messages that will linger long after you finish
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2016*

I loved all aspects of Steve Case's The Third Wave - on both a personal and professional level.  As a millennial/1984 baby who adolescence coincided with the rise of AOL and the internet's "coming of age," I loved getting a behind-the-scenes look at an iconic brand that in many ways reshaped social interactions of my youth.As an entrepreneur, I think The Third Wave is the ultimate guidebook - part descriptive and part prescriptive.  Case reminds us of many powerful lessons - drawn from his personal experiences as both an entrepreneur and an investor, and from the broader market insights he has gained in forensically reviewing the past in order to apply important lessons for our future.What inspired me the most was the profound simplicity of his root arguments: the black and white case to innovate against the backdrop of structural, cultural, governmental, and systemic shades of gray.  Some of my favorites:"Third Wave entrepreneurs must find a way to bring both viewpoints to bear - the nuanced perspective of the defending incumbent and the relentlessly disruptive mind-set of an entrepreneur on the attack.""Incumbents often fail because they underestimate the speed at which the future is approaching...Too often corporate executives are too shortsighted to understand how technology that is disrupting a different industry might be adapted to do the same in their own.""So put down this book.  Pick up your smartphone, your notepad - your blowtorch...Take action.  Be fearless...Keep going.  Keep tinkering..Build something that makes you proud."

    A good read
  

*by R***B on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2018*

Gives a clear and convincing account of the current (2016) state of entrepreneurship in this country, all the factors that influence this, and lays out an optimistic view of America’s future.  Quick read, with valuable insights.On the downside,he does spend too much time talking about his professional history.  Sometimes it can seem boring and irrelevant to the overall theme of the book.  I think he just had to get it off his chest.Solid.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Third Wave:Mostly a Brief History of AOL and Steve
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2016*

I'm an avid reader of any business success story I can get my hands on - Warren Buffet, Vanderbilt, whoever.This book provides an interesting, albeit brief history of AOL and Steve's upbringing.  Then it boldly predicts the "Third Wave" and how you can ride it (Spoiler alert: be the entrepreneur who can team up with mature industries and figure out how to navigate regulation and bureaucracy).Lathering the pages between, the book aspires to inspire you. It warns of the third wave, provides an example, and then some solution. Sadly these shots of inspiration wane quickly. We can all see the tidal wave - a thesis most probably agree with - but then are only given a two by four to float on for the coming destruction. Good luck!In all seriousness the book is interesting. If you want a brief history of AOL and Steve this book is for you.
