NEW NEW THING, THE - A SILICOM VALLEY STORY

On the wings of Lewis's celebrated storytelling, the reader takes the ride of a lifetime through this strange landscape of geeks and billionaires. We get the inside story of the battle between Netscape and Microsoft; we sit in the room as Healtheon management pitches the investment bankers on the idea that Healtheon is the next Microsoft; we get queasy as the great boat sets out into the rage of the North Atlantic in winter. (...). And in every anecdote and character sketch of this shrewd and brilliantly funny book, Michael Lewis is drawing us a map of markets and free enterprise in the twenty-first century.
