Book Description | In the weird glow of the dying millennium, Michael Lewis set out on a safari through Silicon Valley to find the world's most important technology entrepreneur. He found this in Jim Clark, a man whose achievements include the founding of three separate billion-dollar companies. Lewis also found much more, and the result-the best-selling book The New New Thing-is an ingeniously conceived history of the Internet revolution. |
Editorial Review | The most significant business story since the days of Henry Ford... Lewis achieves a novelistic elegance. "Remarkable... Clark proves to be a character as enthralling as any in American fiction or non-fiction... [A] great story ... with prose that ranges from the beautiful to the witty to the breathtaking." -- Fred Moody "A splendid, entirely satisfying book, intelligent and fun and revealing and troubling in the correct proportions, resolutely skeptical but not at all cynical." -- Kurt Andersen |
