For that matter, I think this book is useful because it relies on real cases. And I wish to support my fellow Canadians. About the book for woman issue, I see it as a way to promote and encourage women to start their own business. Nothing wrong with that!

I published a poem on Soapboxgirls back in the late 1800s when blogging was in its infancy and I enjoyed talking about my mess of a soul online! Cool to see what they're up to now. Holy crap!

Our reasoning for focusing on women was that we wanted to celebrate the creative and innovative businesses we saw women creating, and help build a sense of community among women entrepreneurs who are working to build businesses that are outside the mainstream. We aren't among the number who believe that women fundamentally do business differently from men, or even that all women will be interested in this book; on the other hand, though, we have seen evidence that women are at the forefront of redefining what a successful small business looks like, and we wanted to create a business book that tells those stories and shares some wisdom on how to get there.

That's what *women* do.
