Prologue Reading
In a world battered by economic crisis, Mitra believes, entrepreneurship is the only sustainable path forward. And core to the success of these ventures is the art of bootstrapping. Mitras text overflows with lively entrepreneurial tangents, theories and behind-closed-doors-experience, all guided by her uniquely elegant hand.
