The silicon boys and their valley of dreams / David A. Kaplan.

Summary:

"David A. Kaplan takes us on a riotous romp through the history and culture of the Valley. How did Yahoo get started, what nearly killed Netscape, will Apple survive, who's the most powerful person in Silicon Valley? Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Jerry Yang, Larry Ellison, Andy Grove, John Doerr, Marc Andreessen, Jim Clark - the tycoons, the loons, and the hot-air balloons are all here. Based on firsthand accounts and extensive interviews, The Silicon Boys is a sharp and uproarious portrait of high-tech high jinks and the Valley's moneyed lifestyle."--Jacket.
