Great, great business book...
Covers financing from a variety of angles, with a number of different thought points I had not considered on the tax and workforce side. Liked the focus on biotech and pharma as well.

Don't waste your $$$
Despite the nice title of the book, it is not worth a $105.00. The decision making models are overviews and are very brief. This book lacks numeracy. The case studies in my opinion are underdeveloped. The author spends time talking about strategic partnerships and the need for venture portfolio companies, to develop them, but he doesn't provide any examples of those that worked. There is some information to be gleaned from this book, but if you can get it for under $30, then buy it. Otherwise at $105, you will be very disappointed. This book is totally overpriced. If I could photocopy it and return it, I would have.
