THE UNPUTDOWNABLE TRUE STORY OF THE EARLY YEARS OF SILICON VALLEY: A MUST-READ FOR FANS OF ZERO TO ONE

'Hugely enjoyable . . . it reads like a novel, a fantasy tale of rags and riches that happens to be true.' - Sunday Times

'A fascinating journey into the Wild West of American capitalism.' - Daily Telegraph

As the millennium drew to a close, Michael Lewis set out to find the world's most influential technology entrepreneur - the person who would most embody the spirit of the coming age. His search led him to Jim Clark, the billionaire who founded Netscape and Silicon Graphics.

In The New New Thing, Lewis accompanies Clark on the maiden voyage of his superyacht and, on the sometimes hazardous journey, takes the reader on the ride of a lifetime through a landscape of geeks and billionaires. This is the lively and hilarious inside story of Silicon Valley's super-rich and the history of the internet revolution.
