yossi ghinsberg: these guys are on to something, the book is full of eye opening, paradigm shifting substance. the transition of financing and investment from the controlled, self-absorbed big business monopoly to the crowedfunding model is nothing less than revolutionary, Dan and Kevin show us the horizons of a new world and a new dawn. Moreover it is a good read too with lots of background information to give real base for understanding the environments and the evolution of processes. An idea that it's time has come no army can stop - well crowedfunding is that timely idea and this book is an instant classic for any person that is involved in impacting the world.
i love it.

tjn7: This book is bursting with ideas, tied together brilliantly. The authors are not content to lay out the past, present and future of crowdfunding, including the architecture of platforms to support it, They also busily being iconoclasts, breaking down rigid "incumbent" attitudes, technologies and practices, and identifying the flaws and frauds that the old world of technology and finance contain and encourage. This is also a book of "futurism", predicting near- and even long-term innovations and change. I highly recommend this to technologists of all sorts... this is how your next successful venture will be run and funded, and the brave new world may be better than the "Dilbert" world we are leaving behind. Forget "execute, execute, execute"... now it is "pivot, pivot, pivot". Thank you, Kevin and Dan.

Steve Côté: I just read this book and Kevin's blog about Finder’s Economies. Big thinking to say the least.Great book with substance. Great ideas too, especially the Finder’s one. I’m working on a startup and Crowdfunfing Revolution helped me define it. Thanks!

Excerpt from Kevin's blog: Thus some heavy-weight finders could have large impacts, skewing search advertising in a way we haven't seen before. Even what we know as a Google search today, could be finder-ized. Type in a description of what you are looking for, let someone else wade through the Internet to zero in on it, for a tip. The results are emailed back to you. Would you tip $0.25 not to spend half an hour yourself?

Niv Dror: When I wanted to learn about Crowdfunding I bought 4 books on the topic, Dan and Kevin's book was one of them - and is the best one. The content is very well researched and easy to read.

Some of the most interesting topics are:
-The Rate of Change of Technology is increasing, and the implications this has on expertise in any given field
-The Decline of Outlier Identification
-The convergence of a multi disciplinary world with Crowdfunding
-The Wisdom of Crowds and mining the collective IQ
-Wall Street meets Crowdfunding
-Crowdfunding trends, and companies to look out for

Highly recommended.

EYellen: Starting a crowd-funding strategy for the non-profit I work for I looked at all of the books out there and this book was the top of the market. Kevin and Dan do a detailed job of explaining the history of crowd-funding, why it will take over many industries as the new and only way to bring communities together around certain causes and go through strategy and future. It's so well written, very detailed and incredibly socially innovative. They are fair in their assessments of platforms, strategies and campaigns. Can't wait to see what else they come out with!

Amazon Customer: This nicely researched book provides a good analysis into the next generation of funding and startups that uses the connections through social media to raise funds and reach customers. It covers the limits of current VC system - especially the inefficiency of VC's meeting and reviewing all the entrepreneurs. Through crowdfunding, the entrepreneurs build an interested community and customer base and develop symbiotically with their businesses. The newer economic model supports a full scale of potential new businesses from very small to larger than any existing today.
I especially liked Ch. 7 "The Artful Ask" and Chs. 13-14 about regulation. These chapters thoughtfully address a lot of the nagging doubts that build as you read through the book about personal transfer of money between un-official, un-incorporated groups. Yeah, corporations have their downsides, but they are tangible and can be held accountable in today's legal system - how do I know these homegrown entities will be enduring and/or accountable? These chapters address the built-in accountability that is developed while the community of funders/customers is developed. They also tell you how to get started if you...
