The author of Borrowing Brilliance, David Kord Murray, has an impressive resume. Not only is he a rocket scientist who worked on numerous projects for NASA and the Pentagon but he's also a successful entrepreneur, having sold Taxnet, a company he co-founded that specializes in e-filing software, to H&R Block in 2005. And in rnbetween those items on his CV is a strong hint that he practices what he preaches. When Murray was head of innovation at Intuit-the creator of TurboTax, which allows users to e- file -he saw a brilliant idea, borrowed a chunk of it, and made a killing. His book encourages everyone to give it a try. After all, he argues, it worked for Johannes Gutenberg, George Lucas, and the Google guys.
