The book doesn't resonate with my country's entrepreneurial culture, as our business and economic landscapes differ greatly from those in the USA. However, I personally found it to be highly informative. Despite its lack of relevance to my country's business world, I gained valuable insights on business practices, which warrant praise for the book.

The book certainly does not relate to my country's entrepreneurial culture. The US is a superpower and the economic style is very different from many other countries. My country's culture in economics does not even come close to that of the US, so the entrepreneurial culture is not relatable at all.

While the book focuses on the US, the core principles of innovation and calculated risk seem applicable anywhere with a drive to create and grow.

The book doesn't relate to my Country's entrepreneurial culture. The US economic system is very different from my Country's and superior too. But that doesn't do away with the fact that I gained much knowledge from the book.

This is a very interesting question. My country is Cyprus, and as a European and British Commonwealth nation we enjoy the freedom of competition and entrepreneurship like in the U.S.A and some people studied in the USA and brought the business vision and the professional expertise from the U.S.A.. In this sense, this book is very relatable to Cyprus' entrepreneurial culture. However, Cyprus is a small country of slightly more than a million nationals, and the competition is much lesser, the business environment is much friendlier because many people know each other or are connected through friends, and the businesses are much smaller. So in this sense, the Cyprus' business culture does not exactly resonate with that penned in the book.

This book might be more focused on the US system, but the core themes of competition, supportive environments, and innovation are likely relevant to entrepreneurial cultures around the world.

Yeah very related. The principles of successful entrepreneurship outlined in the book is not region bound.

I think this book suits those in America most especially. People in countries facing inflation and other economic instabilities would find this book useful but difficult to implement.
Just my opinion.
