Presents an interim report on the history of Israel. Examines history and culture and uses selected stories of companies to try to understand the source of Israel's creative energy and the forms in which it is expressed. Delves briefly into why American innovation industries have not taken better advantage of the entrepreneural spirit of US military training and experience; and why the Arab world is having difficulty in fostering entrenpreneurship. States that key economic metrics demonstrate that Israel represents the greatest concentration of innovation and entrepreneurship in the world today. Attempts to explain that phenomenon.
