About this product
Product Information
A Washington Post Notable Book This New York Times bestseller is a "masterful" ( The Washington Post ), "juicy tour of the company [Jeff] Bezos built" ( The New York Times Book Review ), revealing the most important business story of our time by the bestselling author of The Everything Store . Almost ten years ago, Bloomberg journalist Brad Stone captured the rise of Amazon in his bestseller The Everything Store . Since then, Amazon has expanded exponentially, inventing novel products like Alexa and disrupting countless industries, while its workforce has quintupled in size and its valuation has soared to nearly two trillion dollars. It's almost impossible to go a day without encountering the impact of Jeff Bezos's Amazon, between services like Whole Foods, Prime Video, and Amazon's cloud computing unit, AWS, plus Bezos's ownership of The Washington Post . We live in a world run, supplied, and controlled by Amazon and its iconoclast founder. In Amazon Unbound , Brad Stone presents an "excellent" ( The New York Times ), deeply reported, vividly drawn portrait of how a retail upstart became of the most powerful and feared entities in the global economy. Stone also probes the evolution of Bezos himself--who started as a geeky technologist totally devoted to building Amazon, but who transformed to become a fit, disciplined billionaire with global ambitions, who ruled Amazon with an iron fist, even as he found his personal life splashed over the tabloids. Definitive, timely, and "engaging" (Jon Meacham, author of The Soul of America ), Stone has provided an unvarnished portrait of a man and company that we couldn't imagine modern life without.

Praise for The Everything Store : Winner of the Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award Chosen as a Best Book of the Year by the Washington Post, The Economist, Forbes, The New Republic, Bloomberg, and Gizmodo , and as one of the Top 10 Investigative Journalism Books by Nieman Reports "Stone tells this story with authority and verve, and lots of well-informed reporting.... A dynamic portrait of the driven and demanding Mr. Bezos." -- Michiko Kakutani, New York Times "Engrossing.... Stone's long tenure covering both Bezos and Amazon gives his retelling a sureness that keeps the story moving swiftly." -- New York Times Book Review "Jeff Bezos is one of the most visionary, focused, and tenacious innovators of our era, and like Steve Jobs he transforms and invents industries. Brad Stone captures his passion and brilliance in this well-reported and compelling narrative." -- Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs " The Everything Store is a revelatory read for everyone--those selling and those sold to--who wants to understand the dynamics of the new digital economy. If you've ever one-clicked a purchase, you must read this book." -- Steven Levy, author of In the Plex "A deeply reported and deftly written book.... it is the definitive account of how a tech icon came to life." -- Seattle Times "Stone's book, at last, gives us a Bezos biography that can fit proudly on a shelf next to the best chronicles of America's other landmark capitalists." -- Forbes Praise for Amazon Unbound: "In this vivid, anecdote-filled page-turner of a book, Stone for the first time goes deep inside a company with colossal power, one we rely on for low-cost, wonderful service, and one that also kills many businesses and jobs. With rare access to Amazon executives, readers are taken inside Amazon meetings, see up close Jezz Bezos's brilliance but also his belligerence, understand the trade-off between impressive efficiency versus the perils of market dominance, and get an up-to-the-moment appreciation of why government is now awake to the monopoly dangers posed by digital giants like Amazon." --Ken Auletta, New York Times bestselling author of Googled "There are really only a handful of writers who can craft a page-turning narrative about the most transformative business ideas. Brad Stone is one. His topic of choice -- Amazon and its founder Jeff Bezos -- is equal to his journalistic skill. In this book, he gives us his second must-read account of how the world's most important company and technology titan captured not only global retail, but Washington, Hollywood, outer space and your brain." --Rana Faroohar, author of Makers and Takers and Don't Be Evil, "In this vivid, anecdote-filled page-turner of a book, Stone goes deep inside a company with colossal power, one we rely on for low-cost, wonderful service, and one that also kills many businesses and jobs.

If a company and a culture can have a biographer, Stone is Amazon's--which, given the retailer's ubiquity, makes him a biographer of the way all of us live now." --Jon Meacham, author of The Soul of America "Fascinating and deeply researched....Stone is at his best describing Bezos's demanding style of management....[a] masterful book." --Marc Levinson, Washington Post
