"The Four Steps To The Epiphany" - Steve Blank.

Because it opened my eyes to a whole new world in terms of understanding customer development and the "market definition" side of things. And, coming from a background as a hacker, not a sales/biz-dev guy, that's exactly what I needed.

I agree, but I really wish that Steve would invest in a book designer. It's truly one of the most ugly books I've ever seen. But to be fair it is actually the minimum viable product.

I agree. I had the book on my shelves for a year before I finally started reading it, because it looks so amateurish.

It's absolutely riddled with spelling mistakes and grammatical errors, but it's still one of my favourite books of the year for the content.
