Just read this in the last month and devoured it. I'm currently doing a lot of thinking about how to apply the ideas that drive entrepreneurship to the international development sector and the ah-ha moments from this book were incredible. Interesting to see the parallels - both sectors are trying to solve poorly defined and understood problems with new solutions, especially in the case of a new market.

I think this leads to a lot relevant lessons to be learned between the sectors - mostly international development learning from entrepreneurship. Just started a series of blog posts on this here: http://theborrowedbicycle.ca/2010/11/tech-startups-and-human...
