About the publisher

Stripe Press publishes books about economic, technological, and scientific advancement.

Stripe partners with hundreds of thousands of the world’s most innovative businesses—organizations that will shape the world of tomorrow. These businesses are the result of many different inputs. Perhaps the most important ingredient is "ideas." Stripe Press highlights ideas that we think can be broadly useful. Some books contain entirely new material, some are collections of existing work reimagined, and others are republications of previous works that have remained relevant over time or have renewed relevance today.

Review

“This book is something of a publishing miracle—never advertised, yet year after year selling many thousands of copies from its Internet site.” 
—Warren Buffett, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway


“Charlie Munger was born before corporate speak, before business leaders minced words to obscure truths. But Charlie Munger’s words have always cut like a knife—and that sharp spirit of truth-seeking built Berkshire into what it is today. We should all aspire to such clarity.”
—Katherine Boyle, general partner at a16z
