Review
An intriguing book.--Metro
Thorp and Goldstein make a strong case for their vision.--Raleigh News & Observer
Cover[s] the importance of enterprise, leadership, changing culture, responsibility, and much more. . . . A vital entry into any community or college library collection that features insights into the future of education and societal change.--Midwest Book Review
A growing chorus of voices is insisting that the world's great problems will be solved only through innovative thinking and that such thinking can best be found at the research university. Right at the forefront of this group are Holden Thorp . . . and Buck Goldstein . . . and they lay out a persuasive case in Engines of Innovation.--BizEd
Review
Engines of Innovation inspires, guides, and informs universities on collaboration, structure, sustainability, cost, and practical details of designing and achieving maximum potential for entrepreneurship programs. This fascinating read is an excellent resource for helping universities connect with the world beyond their campuses.--Deborah D. Hoover, president and CEO of The Burton D. Morgan Foundation
The role of universities as sources for entrepreneurial endeavors in information technology and biotechnology has long been appreciated. In this exciting book, Thorp and Goldstein propose an interesting thesis: the entrepreneurial characteristics of the top research universities will be critical to the efforts of these universities to play a major role in seeking solutions to the world's biggest problems. This is a fascinating thesis and one that, after reading this book, I came to believe.--John L. Hennessy, president of Stanford University
Packed with ideas about how to transform universities into wellsprings of solutions to global problems.--David Bornstein, author of How to Change the World: Social Entrepreneurs and the Power of New Ideas
It is widely recognized that innovative entrepreneurs play a critical role in the technical progress and economic growth of our society. With the help of this excellent book, colleges and universities can begin to design and more effectively to establish programs in entrepreneurship.--William J. Baumol, academic director of the Berkley Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, New York University
Thorp and Goldstein have hit the mark. Promoting innovation in higher education is one of the best things we can do for our country's global competitiveness and economic future, and this book points the way forward.--Michael R. Bloomberg, mayor of New York City
Thorp and Goldstein bring an urgent and timely message: American universities must fundamentally transform in order to assure America's global competitive leadership in the 21st century. Simply put, if colleges foster an entrepreneurial culture, innovation will flourish, both within our academic institutions, and more broadly throughout the economy. This outstanding book paves the way forward.--John Denniston, partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers
Universities have enabled the American dream and are among our nation's greatest competitive strengths. However, the costs of a university education are unsustainably high, and there is pressure on virtually every traditional source of revenue. Universities must transform themselves, yet they face numerous barriers to change--starting with the tenure system. This book, by one of the new generation of innovative university presidents together with a leading venture capitalist, describes how universities can embark on a whole new path. The book is full of ideas for university leaders, trustees, alumni, philanthropists, and the business community.--Michael E. Porter, Bishop William Lawrence University Professor, Harvard Business School

• Bachelor of Arts: The Johns Hopkins University (1961)

“Above all, do not fear difficult moments. The best comes from them!” – Professor Rita Levi-Montalcini M.D., Ph.D. {1909 – 2012: Nobel Laureate Physiology: Medicine)
“Great teachers often say they learn more from their students than their students learn from them.” (Page 15 of this outstanding text}
As I read and re-read this Second Edition of this well-written, well-referenced, outstanding text these words of Sir Howard Walter Florey {1898 – 1968} came to mind:
“ “I would be true, for there are those who trust me;
I would be pure, for there are those who care;
I would be strong, for there is much to suffer;
I would be brave, for there is much to dare;”
-----------------------------------------------------------Sir Howard Walter Florey, M.D., Ph.D. {1898 – 1968}
Yes it is true that our Universities prepare our students for jobs that do not yet exist; just as Our Washington University School of Medicine prepared me for HIV/AIDS unknown when I received my Doctor of Medicine (now 50 Fifty Years Ago) in 1965; just as I endeavor to prepare my students for Ebola with reasonable training in P.P.M. (Personal Protective Measures) perhaps somewhat more stringent that we were taught during our Vietnam Era Military Medical Officer Basic Training (and later during Command and General Staff School} both at Fort Sam Houston, Sam Antonio Texas prior to and before our Active Duty Medical Military Deployment to Malaria Endemic Areas in our Far East!
A copy of this outstanding text should be in each and every City, County, University, and College of Medicine Library. Our incoming first year Medical Students should read and discuss this text with their Mentors. All of our Washington University Alumni and our University of North Carolina Alumni will surely walk taller when they read and discuss this exemplary text with their students as I will with my students.
I look forward to reading future editions of this outstanding text as I look forward to, “The Road Ahead!” (Page 162 of this outstanding text)

Great read!
By S. Rayford
I really enjoyed the ideas that this book presented and would recommend it to anyone interested in bridging the gap between universities and entrepreneurship. This book provides insight as to how other universities do this successfully and what needs to be present at other universities for this to be successful at other universities.
