Reviews

Harris's earlier book Kids These Days was a broad cultural history of millennials, zeroing in on the unfair economic stereotypes that have dogged the generation. Now, he tells an ambitious story of Silicon Valley, showing how its specific culture and history allowed it to become the site of both breathtaking technological advancement and capitalist exploitation. * Joumana Khatib, NEW YORK TIMES * Unsparing... Its narrative has the intoxifying capitalist rush of The Lehman Trilogy... Uneasily compelling * The Spectator * Cathartic and illuminating... readers will leave this book gifted with a trove of information, a lurch in their stomach, and a sense of foreboding about the future * Irish Independent *
