Excerpt: Why is the team small? "Well, it's very difficult to find good people. Also we have a pre-verbal way of communicating which works best in small team. At their inception, ideas are invariably fragile and it's easy to miss them. Small groups of people are more sensitive to spotting these good ideas. With hindsight, a great idea seems obvious, but it's not always easy to spot in the process."
