Start-up Nation: The Story of Israel's Economic Miracle is a 2009 book by Dan Senor and Saul Singer about the economy of Israel.^[1] It examines how Israel, a 60-year-old nation with a population of 7.1 million, was able to reach such economic growth that "at the start of 2009, some 63 Israeli companies were listed on the NASDAQ, more than those of any other foreign country."^[2]

In 2010, Start-up Nation was ranked fifth on the business bestseller list of The New York Times.^[3] It also reached The Wall Street Journal bestseller list.^[4]

Despite claims in the media that Dan Senor coined the phrase "start-up nation" in 2009,^[5]^[6] the phrase was featured in American technology media at least since November 2000 in an article by Stacy Perman titled "Startup Nation".^[7]^[8]
