Morality aside, it's not a book that would teach you how to found a new Google, rather how to exploit social structures in place assuming most people would keep their way of thinking/doing. Exaggerating, it's like when you identify how an ideal member of a religion would behave (because of archetype and social conformity pressure put on them), and then exploit what they aren't allowed to do. Imagine though if every single member of your nation followed RDPD strategy - when everybody is doing that, nobody wins.

The quintessential example of this is a guy like Dean Kamen, working on the Slingshot clean-water project. I hope he gets rich from that... because he'll have done it saving millions of lives per year.
