Bold is the follow up to “Abundance”, that I haven’t read, I must say. But it stands on its own, don’t worry.
The book is divided into three big sections.
First, the authors talk about the promise and reality of the five exponential technologies: Networks and sensors, Artificial intelligence, Infinite computing, Robotics, and Genomics.
In the second part of the book, we get introduced to the bold mindset that one must possess to achieve exponential growth. Diamandis and Kotler give examples of the lives of 4 entrepreneurs: Elon Musk, Richard Branson, Jeff Bezos, and Larry Page.
In the final section of the book, “The Bold Crowd”, the authors talk a lot about the power of the crowd, dedicated a full chapter to Crowdsourcing and another to Crowdfunding. The final chapter of the book explains and exemplifies Incentive prizes (using the XPRIZE and others as examples).
This book makes you wonder about the future. Or, then again, about the present we are already living.
