It came out last October, won the Goldman Sachs/Financial Times Business book of the year award and just came out in paperback.I’ve covered Silicon Valley for about 15 years now for the New York Times, Newsweek Magazine and BusinessWeek and in those times I’ve seen a lot of my colleagues write great books about the other technology companies that are changing our lives. And for whatever reason no one had done a really great job on writing a book about Amazon and I thought it was time to take an in-depth look on its history and all the obstacles’ it’s had to navigate.” – Brad StoneFor a detailed summary of The Everything Store according to Brad Stone CLICK HERERelated Books:Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future by Peter Thiel and Blake MastersStartup Mixology by Frank GruberExponential Organizations By Salim IsmailFor more advice, tips, and stories on entrepreneurship, join our community on Facebook and Twitter.Category Tags: Jeff Bezos, amazon success, real business lessons, silicon valley, ecommerce store, culture of amazon, startup success, build a startup, inside a business, amazon prime, buy online, online selling
