Book Review: Small Giants by Bo Burlingham Small Giants, by Bo Burlingham, is an excellent read for all proponents of small business. Following the framework of Built to Last, Burlingham studies a series of companies who have been tremendously successful. However, he instead investigates companies that choose to be great rather than gigantic – hence the title Small Giants.This idea first appealed to me because I have always believed that small businesses are the backbone of the American economy.
