Zero to One by Peter Thiel and Blake Masters
Zero to One book cover
Zero to One, written by Peter Thiel, former CEO of PayPal, and venture capitalist Blake Masters, is a manifesto for entrepreneurs who will build the future.

It’s a must-read for the dreamers of this world—also known as entrepreneurs—who feel the spark of a brand-new idea in their hearts and want the inspiration to act.
