Book Reviews

“Maury Forman is a troubadour for helping communities grow and prosper. He conveys practical and important information with humor and passion. Besides that, he’s a darn funny guy!”
Mark Barbash, Professional Development Chair of the Ohio Economic Development Association

“Maury’s insights into rural economic development and entrepreneurship distill otherwise arcane prescriptions into something we can all take to the bank. Rural practitioners, and well, just about everyone else will profit from his wit and wisdom.”
Jon M. Roberts, Principal of TIP Strategies

“Maury nails it! For years I have admired his work, and he does not disappoint with this new book. His ability to blend fun with cartoons, with what is a serious issue that communities need to be successful in economic development, is the best I have seen. Prepare to laugh and be energized with a can-do spirit once you read this book.”
Dale Wheeldon, President and CEO of the British Columbia Economic Development Association
