About This Item
Synopsis
As American capitalism undergoes a seismic shift, Michael Lewis , author of the bestselling Liar's Poker , sets out on a Silicon Valley safari to find the true representative of the coming economic age. All roads lead to Jim Clark , the man who rewrote the rules of American capitalism as the founder of (so far) three multi-billion dollar companies--Silicon Graphics, Netscape, and Healtheon. Lewis's shrewd, often brilliantly funny, narrative provides ahead-of-the-curve observations about the Internet explosion and how the success of Silicon Valley companies is forcing a reassessment of traditional Wall-Street business models. Weaving Clark's story together with that of this new business phenomenon, Lewis has drawn us a map of markets and free enterprise in the twenty-first century and blown the lid off the changing economy.
