About the Book – Mission in a Bottle, written by Honest Tea co-founders Seth Goldman and Barry Nalebuff, shares what happens when two outsiders to the beverage industry – a student and his professor – decide to make bottled tea that actually tastes like tea.  In an engaging illustrated comic format, Seth and Barry explain how they built their business from five thermoses to more than 100 million bottles a year. Offering a wealth of insights and advice for idealists, entrepreneurs, and would-be entrepreneurs, the book shows how economic theory helped them to get the big picture right and how they trusted their passion for transforming the American diet to keep them on course.
