具体描述
A look deep inside the new Silicon Valley, from the New York Times bestselling author of The Everything Store
Ten years ago, the idea of getting into a stranger's car, or a walking into a stranger's home, would have seemed bizarre and dangerous, but today it's as common as ordering a book online. Uber and Airbnb have ushered in a new era: redefining neighborhoods, challenging the way governments regulate business, and changing the way we travel.
In the spirit of iconic Silicon Valley renegades like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, another generation of entrepreneurs is using technology to upend convention and disrupt entire industries. These are the upstarts, idiosyncratic founders with limitless drive and an abundance of self-confidence. Led by such visionaries as Travis Kalanick of Uber and Brian Chesky of Airbnb, they are rewriting the rules of business and often sidestepping serious ethical and legal obstacles in the process.
The Upstarts is the definitive story of two new titans of business and a dawning age of tenacity, conflict and wealth. In Brad Stone's riveting account of the most radical companies of the new Silicon Valley, we discover how it all happened and what it took to change the world.

##很久前买来读了一半，现在成了员工再翻感觉也不一样了
评分##见the airbnb story的评价。uber没有什么好说的。
评分##An engrossing tale about two of the biggest stars of sharing economy. The history of Uber and Airbnb is more than just epic battles between the incumbents and future, it offers an enticing glimpse at what this new century might really look like.
评分##“I got kind of obsessed,” he says. “I was living vicariously, escaping to a world where someone could build something and actually change something. I was not doing that. I was sitting in a dark office making stuff for closets and landfills.” 妈的同感 但是我他妈没有Chesky的才华
评分##每个公司的起源故事都很有意思，更有意思的是发现这些根本性很不同的产品在做大做强之后不可避免的又变得趋同
评分##身在湾区很多故事之前都没有听过。真是没有什么一帆风顺，即使是独角兽也不例外。
评分##随着智能手机出现的这波新公司值得记录下来
评分##Brad就还是厉害的
评分##见the airbnb story的评价。uber没有什么好说的。
