Description
New York Times Bestseller. “A superb book. . . . [Lewis] makes Silicon Valley as thrilling and intelligible as he made Wall Street in his best-selling Liar’s Poker.”—Time 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. Review: Excellent Book about the initial days of Silicon Valley - Printing. quality is very poor Review: Superbe ! - Superbe !

A Must Read for Michael Lewis Fans
I was introduced to Michael Lewis via The Big Short and Liar's Poker followed by Money Ball and The Blind Side. For some reason many who loved those books as much as I did that I speak to have never read this one. Was bought as a gift as I had read before. If you subscribe to the notion that history doesn't repeat itself but it rhymes definitely worth picking up as lots of lessons to learn from the tech bubble and the euphoria that drove it!

An insightful story on an exceptional builder
From bits on his past life to his genius of the new new thing, Jim Clark and his fellows builders don't cease to amaze and inspire to never stop looking for the future

Interesting read on the history of Internet boom
I like the books of Michael Lewis and his style. This one is on history of Internet Boom and the period in the Valley from mid-eighties to end of 90-ties.
