The New New Thing: A Silicon Valley Story by Michael Lewis

3.0

Re-read this for "reasons". Some interesting insights into Clark's character as well as the pervasive attitude in Silicon Valley during this time period. Some would say the amount of hot air being blown is comparable to today's tech climate, but I would argue that the current optimism is more grounded in reality. Lewis gets distracted by parts of the story that don't matter (automated sailboats) and some of the people I most want to hear from (on the ground engineers not making millions of dollars) get little page time.
