Review of 'No better time' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

The story of a mathematician, an idea, a company and a tragedy. Each chapter leads with a great quote, then goes on to tell yet another fascinating chapter of this driven entrepreneur.

What I liked best were the added bits, from personal life (the impact of Israeli military service and his own fathers devotion) to the idea (analogies help explain the algorithm fairly well) to the company (not just a simple who were the customers, but why and what problems did they solve).

I hope this author finds another topic related to science to cover soon.
