Summary of Rajat Bhargava & Will Herman's The Startup Playbook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 There are many different types of startups. Some combine several small businesses, while others take a nontraditional route to building a company. The key is to not be confined to any particular startup model. #2 A startup is a high-growth company that is scalable, focused on continuously growing, and one where the founders develop an exit strategy that results in either a sale of the company or an IPO. #3 A startup is a business that, by definition, will have an exit at some point in time. The founding team should be thinking about selling the company, doing an IPO, merging with another company, or finding another type of financially positive exit. #4 There are many types of startups, and they come from many industries. You don’t have to deliver the next innovative technology to get going in the startup world. Instead, think about what market or industries can be improved. When you do this, you’ve taken the first step in launching a potentially successful startup.

Waxman (English, U. of North Carolina) compares autobiographical writings that cover themes related to aging, namely the relationships between elderly parents and middle-aged children, the experience of turning 70, the role of race, philosophical insights and quasi- mystical experiences by the aging, and the representation of elders as sages and sibyls.

Foundation for a Natural Morality
Few philosophers attempt to establish that there is an evaluative and moral realm. They make these major assumptions without argument. This plays into the hands of moral nihilists and certain other moral skeptics. A major obstacle that prevents philosophers from developing such arguments is the long-standing view that one cannot derive an “ought” from an “is,” that is, one cannot begin with purely descriptive non-evaluative propositions and deduce an evaluative or moral proposition. In this book, Edmund Wall develops arguments for evaluative and moral principles. His deductive reasoning begins with certain purely descriptive and non-evaluative propositions concerning human nature, establishing a basic moral principle of human life and a basic moral principle of knowledge. By providing such deductive arguments for basic moral principles, Wall makes considerable progress in establishing a sure foundation for morality. He further develops his case by responding to a plethora of anticipated objections against his two arguments, and by delineating the advantages of his own moral approach over a number of influential moral theories and competing accounts of moral reasoning.
