The book meticulously traces the evolution of the Segway from Dean Kamen's initial vision through its development, launch, and market impact, weaving together engineering innovation with entrepreneurial insights.

 
Through extensive research, including patent documents, interviews, and market data, the narrative illuminates how this self-balancing technology revolutionized urban mobility concepts while providing valuable lessons in product development and market strategy. The book's unique approach combines technical depth with business acumen, examining three crucial elements: the engineering breakthroughs in dynamic stabilization technology, the complex business challenges of market entry, and the broader implications for urban transportation.

 
Readers gain intimate knowledge of the $100 million research and development process, the intricate engineering behind the self-balancing mechanisms, and the strategic decisions that shaped the product's journey to market. The analysis of patent strategies, manufacturing approaches, and regulatory challenges provides practical insights for entrepreneurs and engineers alike.

 
The narrative progresses from technical innovation to market implementation, incorporating case studies from cities worldwide and examining both successes and setbacks. The book maintains objectivity while exploring how initial market projections aligned with actual outcomes, making it particularly valuable for those interested in the intersection of mechanical engineering and business entrepreneurship.

    The Financial Advisor’s Definitive Guide to Niche Marketing
    
    In Uncomparable, veteran financial services marketing consultant Kristen Luke challenges the traditional concept of striving to be the best financial advisor in the industry. Instead, encourages financial advisors to become "uncomparable" by owning a niche and establishing themselves as an expert in solving one problem for one type of client. In this book, Luke argues that being "better" than the competition is not enough because you can be surpassed by other financial advisors who add just one additional service or implement a slightly superior approach.
    
    In contrast, by positioning yourself as unique and focusing on developing and promoting your expertise to a narrow set of clients, you become uncomparable and stand out as a leader in your space.
    
    This book offers practical advice to help you identify your niche and build your marketing strategy to attract your ideal clientele. With a refreshing perspective on business differentiation and actionable steps for standing out in a crowded marketplace, Uncomparable will allow you to find your path to marketing success.

    The promise of artificial intelligence is automated decision-making at scale, but that means AI also automates risk at scale. Are you prepared for that risk? 
     
     
     
    Already, many companies have suffered real damage when their algorithms led to discriminatory, privacy-invading, and even deadly outcomes. Self-driving cars have hit pedestrians; HR algorithms have precluded women from job searches; mortgage systems have denied loans to qualified minorities. And often the companies who deployed the AI couldn't explain why the black box made the decision it did. 
     
     
     
    In Ethical Machines, Reid Blackman gives you all you need to understand AI ethics as a risk management challenge. He'll help you build, procure, and deploy AI in a way that's not only ethical but also safe in terms of your organization's reputation, regulatory compliance, and legal standing—and do it at scale. And don't worry—the book's purpose is to get work done, not to ponder deep and existential questions about ethics and technology. Blackman's clear and accessible writing helps make a complex and often misunderstood concept like ethics easy to grasp. Most importantly, Blackman makes ethics actionable by tackling the big three ethical risks with AI—bias, explainability, and privacy—and tells you what to do (and what not to do) to mitigate them.
