You should read but be cautious
Revisado: 04-24-21
Overall this is a good book to let you rethink monetization. It had a framework for you to follow and lots of examples. BUT..read on
1. There are conflicting principles. For example, knowing what products customers will want and be willing to pay is good but sometimes if every innovation was checked with clients most current products will never exists - Will you sit in a stranger's car (UBER)? Will you pay premium for iPhone? Will you want a watch that tells time and does something your phone already done (Apple Watches or Smartwatch)?
2. It doesn't work for every situation. Willingness to pay may work very well for services but may not work really well for products and innovation that has an already higher cost. Customers will always want lower prices for more value. You can't lower your price below your costs.
3. The book doesn't really go into situations where the innovation is a change in customer behavior. Sometimes you have to bring products and services that customers will have to adopt as new and this is really difficult to determine with what the book recommends.
I will still recommend the book. There are good stuff in there.

Historia
Facebook, PayPal, Alibaba, Uber - these seemingly disparate companies have upended entire industries by harnessing a single phenomenon: the platform business model. Platform Revolution delivers the first comprehensive analysis of how platforms use technology to match producers and consumers in a multisided marketplace, unlocking hidden resources and creating new forms of value. When a company like Uber connects drivers with passengers, everybody wins - except traditional cab companies, which are scrambling to survive.

Revisado: 08-13-20
Read the book when it came out and then listened to the audio too. Great read.
Not only does it give you a details about Platforms but also deep-dives into how-tos. Most gives just tells you about stuff and don't tell you what to consider when doing stuff yourself. This book does both.

Good listen
Revisado: 01-06-20
Good listen and interesting stories. It may be dificult to replicate so if you're looking for some step by step guide, this won't help you. At least you can understand some of the secrets but don't copy and paste because your circumstances or organization are different.
Interesting to know but don't expect a Holy Grail

Historia
How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to each other that isn't true? While tackling these questions, Malcolm Gladwell was not solely writing a book for the page. He was also producing for the ear. In the audiobook version of Talking to Strangers, you’ll hear the voices of people he interviewed - scientists, criminologists, military psychologists.

Be patient, it gets better
Revisado: 09-13-19
So first, it's in podcast style which is great to follow.
If you know from Malcolm's precious books, he doesn't get to the point without stories and context so be patient and wait for the key points.
This could have been a podcast in honesty but well, there's more value for the author to put it in a book.
Overall, good stories that will jolt your mind and make you start rethinking truth, trust and lies and why you cannot be definite about what you see it think you're seeing.
I recommend this book and if you don't already listen to his podcasts (Revisionist History) start since those are free anyway.
Enjoy.

Historia
In his sequel to Ignorance (Oxford University Press, 2012), Stuart Firestein shows us that the scientific enterprise is riddled with mistakes and errors - and that this is a good thing! Failure: Why Science Is So Successful delves into the origins of scientific research as a process that relies upon trial and error, one which inevitably results in a hefty dose of failure. In fact, scientists throughout history have relied on failure to guide their research, viewing mistakes as a necessary part of the process.

You'll learn a lot and will challenge your thinking. Reading this together with his book on Ignorance is a perfect combination. As usual, make your own judgement.

Long but with it
Revisado: 05-14-19
it's a long listen but worth it. I listened at 1.5X speed. I made some notes too. the stories are interesting and you kind of need to pay attention else you'll lose the plot.
Overall, great listen but it's 28 hours.

Historia
Physicist and entrepreneur Safi Bahcall reveals a surprising new way of thinking about the mysteries of group behavior that challenges everything we thought we knew about nurturing radical breakthroughs. Drawing on the science of phase transitions, Bahcall reveals why teams, companies, or any group with a mission will suddenly change from embracing wild new ideas to rigidly rejecting them.

A different perspective
Revisado: 03-31-19
I'm giving this book 5 starts because of the different perspectives the stories bring. However, some of the duties after too long and could have been shortened especially in the earlier parts of the book.
Over, it's a good read I'd say.

Historia
What happens when the President of the United States governs one Tweet at a time? When the elected leader of the free world may not have a firm grasp on the names of government agencies, much less an understanding of their intricate inner-workings? In the days following the 2016 inauguration, government personnel searched for answers that didn’t exist, while White House staff scoured halls for employees who would never be appointed.

Interesting read over. Good performance and story.
it's related primarily to the US so others in other countries may not not find it relevant to them.

Historia
Knowledge is a big subject, says Stuart Firestein, but ignorance is a bigger one. And it is ignorance - not knowledge - that is the true engine of science. Most of us have a false impression of science as a surefire, deliberate, step-by-step method for finding things out and getting things done. In fact, says Firestein, more often than not, science is like looking for a black cat in a dark room, and there may not be a cat in the room.

This book is simple enough to challenge your thinking and to give you a different view of science and how you perceive science. I'll recommend it without giving you the much. I want you to enjoy listening.
