Reviews
"The most significant business story since the days of Henry Ford ...Lewis achieves a novelistic elegance." -- Boston Globe "May be to Silicon Valley what Pepys 's diary was to 1660's London or Twain 's Roughing It to the American West of the last century." -- Kurt Andersen , The New York Times Book Review (front-page review)

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., 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.
