Zuckerberg launched Facebook from his Harvard University dormitory room on February 4, 2004. He was assisted by his college roommates and fellow Harvard students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes. The group then introduced Facebook to other college campuses. Facebook expanded rapidly, reaching one billion users by 2012. Meanwhile, Zuckerberg was involved in various legal disputes brought by others in the group, who claimed a share of the company based upon their involvement during the development phase of Facebook.

Mark Zuckerberg has a success story so great that most people could only wish for a tenth of what he's managed to accomplish. Despite all of his success, he comes from a modest background and normal parents.

Don't get this book, go to Wikipedia instead.

You are 10x better off reading the Wikipedia entry on Mark Zuckerberg than spending any time with this. It is poorly written and full of mistakes.

Thanks for sharing Gerald!!

Each chapter is a different story that is almost too funny to believe

Very entertaining. Each chapter is a different story that is almost too funny to believe. I couldn't wait to get to the next story. Yet, each chapter ends with a good life lesson. This reminds me a little of Duck Dynasty; as there is a life adventure that ends with a spiritual message. Enjoy!!

Title: George Romney

Subtitle: An American Life

Author: Patrick Foster, Mitt Romney - foreword

Narrator: Robertson Dean

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 51 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-15-17

Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Business Leaders

Publisher's Summary:

George W. Romney was a remarkable person. As chairman of American Motors Corporation from 1954 to 1962, he saved that company from sure destruction and led it to its greatest success. He later became the most popular governor in Michigan history, a Republican stalwart beloved in a Democratic state. He ran for the presidency in 1967 and served as Secretary of HUD in the first Nixon administration before leaving over concerns about the president.

More than a mere list of accomplishments, he also lived a romantic, heroic life. While still a child, his family was chased out of their home in Mexico, becoming homeless refugees living in poverty. Even after the family reestablished itself in the United States, they lived a hand-to-mouth existence. But Romney never lost hope. He believed that, in America, anyone could rise above their humble origins and accomplish anything they wanted to. He went from being a farm hand and carpenter to becoming the most famous CEO of his era. Seen as a steady, wholesome sort, he rashly quit college to win the hand of a beautiful Hollywood starlet he loved intensely.

In this audiobook, you'll learn the story of one of the most remarkable men of the 20th century, a man who combined sheer moral force with hard-driving determination to succeed. Honest, truthful, hard-working, and decent, Romney was the sort of person who comes along rarely and leaves us too soon. His type sets the standard by which others are judged. And for that we can be grateful.

An amazing life

Very pleased with the book in how it described this fascinating man and his life experiences in private business and political life that almost resulted in him becoming President of the United States. The tragedy of his life that was that he did not become President largely due to the biased media. Who knows how much better off this country would be had Mr. Romney been elected. Once again the pathetic media created a story that in effect helped prevent a very highly qualified ethical person from becoming President, and for what reason? Personally, I have intense distaste for the media in general, I do not trust them as they more than not will twist truth and present distorted information that can ruin the career of a person which they did in the case of Mr. Romney.

To make matters worse, he realized that he had run out of money.

Great Book

The book entitled "Dreaming Big: My Journey to Connect India" an autobiography of Satyanarayan Gangaram Pitroda a.k.a Sam Pitroda portrays India's journey to modern IT revolution. Pitroda is the father of telcom revolution in India who developed world-class infrastructure in telecommunications and introduced 'Make in India' concept in early 80's. His successful attempts to get ten million dollars software contract from GE paved a way for Indian software industry to reach to export 150 billion dollars worth of software in 2015.

India was greatly benefited by two NRIs. Mahatma Gandhi came from South Africa and led freedom movement. Pitroda came from the US, initiated technology revolution and made technology accessible to every Indian.

Pitroda is true believer in Gandhi philosophy and strictly implemented Gandhian style of management throughout his career. He brought revolutionary changes in telecom industry, stopped corruption, introduced egalitarian system. He also fought against ruthless autocratic officials and powerful lobbies who sold outdated telecom equipment to the department.

Pitroda broken social-rules and lived like a rebellion. Eating cow meet in those days was an adventurism. His love story reminds Raj Kapoor's Bollywood movies. He never allowed poverty to dominate either his thought process or his lifestyle.

Pitroda is architect of Right to Education Act which is as important as universal franchise. The book narrates his attempts to make education and technology available to disadvantaged sections in the society.

The book throws insights on Pitroda contribution to rural drinking water, literacy, immunization, and edible oils.

The book reveals rare glimpses of Rajiv Gandhi, his thrust to modernize India and finding out of the box solutions to chronic problems.

India passed through a very bad phase under the leadership of VP Singh. Irresponsibly, Singh initiated political disintegration, social conflicts and economic destruction. India was on verge of bankruptcy during this period. The same administration spread false rumors and caused health problems to Pitroda.
