Review: A Must-Read for All Those Interested in Breaking into the Tech World - I am a PM at Quora and discovered Swipe to Unlock through our company book club. One of our leads nominated it as our read of the month. Our books are usually more of stories (e.g. Bad Blood) rather than case studies, so I was a bit reluctant reading “a primer” given that I have been working in tech for almost 8 years now. I have to hand it to the authors though, they did a phenomenal job incorporating vivid storytelling into the book! Each chapter of the book is full of key insights regarding business trends and tech developments. I think this book is a must read for everyone working in tech, but especially product management professionals. There’s few good resources to help PMs think big and critically analyze opportunity. I think Swipe to Unlock and Zero to One are probably the best books on the market for that. I was familiar with at least half the material in this book, but I previously lacked the ability to explain the concepts in ways that non-technical members of my team could understand and thus comprehend the significance of the technical product decisions we were making. So this book definitely helped with that. But, the real value I got from this book was in the later chapters which focused more on business strategy and emerging market trends. Having a Western-centric user base at Quora, I haven’t yet had much exposure to the tech trends in high growth tech markets such as South East Asia. This book does a phenomenal job breaking down key growth strategies other companies have used to successfully win market share in emerging markets. It also reveals that rationale behind major acquisitions such as Microsoft acquiring LinkedIn and provides actionable analysis on what things to look for to make an acquisition successful. If you are a product manager, I would highly recommend reading this book. It will broaden your perspective from thinking how to incrementally improve your product to how to spot the next major opportunity. I just ordered copies for both of my reports to read!
Review: Navigating the Intersection of Technology and Business with Insight and Clarity - In an era where technology incessantly reshapes the business landscape, "Swipe to Unlock" emerges as a seminal guide for anyone looking to understand the intricacies at the confluence of these two worlds. This book offers a comprehensive primer on the essential concepts, trends, and case studies that define today’s tech and business environment. What sets "Swipe to Unlock" apart is its accessibility. The authors have masterfully simplified complex topics without diluting their significance, making it an excellent resource not only for industry professionals but for anyone curious about the digital world's inner workings. From the fundamentals of cloud computing to the nuances of digital marketing strategies, the book spans a broad spectrum of subjects relevant to navigating today's digital-first marketplace. Moreover, "Swipe to Unlock" does not merely present information; it contextualizes it within the real-world dynamics of market leaders like desertcart, Facebook, and Google. By dissecting their strategies, successes, and failures, the book offers invaluable lessons on leveraging technology to drive business innovation and success. In summary, "Swipe to Unlock" is a must-read for anyone eager to gain a deeper understanding of how technology continues to transform the business landscape. Its insightful analysis, engaging narrative, and practical examples make it an invaluable addition to your reading list. Whether you're a budding entrepreneur, a tech enthusiast, or simply someone keen to stay ahead in an ever-evolving world, this book will equip you with the knowledge and perspectives needed to unlock new opportunities.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I would only recommend this book to those who know little about technology or the tech industry
*by B***Z on October 31, 2024*

If you are already in the tech industry or familiar with current technology, the terminology, and how current tech works, this book is probably going to be too basic for you. The book does describe tech concepts and terminology in a basic, easily understood way with relatable analogies, so it would be great for someone who has very little understanding about how the tech around them works. If that's you and you're interested in understanding more about tech, it's worth the quick, easy read. If not, pass on this one.
