This McGraw-Hill anthology compiles articles from reputable magazines, newspapers, and journals to supplement college entrepreneurship courses — a format that was genuinely useful in its day. The editor, Robert W. Price, brings real-world credentials through the Global Entrepreneurship Institute, and the broad topical sweep covers startup strategy, small-business management, and entrepreneurial capitalism. The fundamental problem is time: the 2002/03 edition is now more than two decades old, and current-events anthologies age poorly. The business landscape, funding environment, and entrepreneurial tools these articles describe have changed substantially. As a primary resource it falls flat; as a historical curiosity about early-2000s startup thinking, it has narrow use.
