The Founder's Dilemmas: Anticipating and Avoiding the Pitfalls That Can Sink a Startup (The Kauffman Foundation Series on Innovation and Entrepreneurship) by Noam Wasserman
I did enjoy the book and found it interesting. It highlighted many interesting areas for introspection. The main reason I gave it 3 stars though is it really does not provide any decent advice other than "know thyself". Given certain motivations etc it tells you what may happen in the future and may help shape early decisions that you make for the better but that would be the best case scenario. Without all the supporting examples and repetition it could have been written in about 25 pages.
