"Nadie que salga de leer El problema de Bill Gates lo mirará de la misma manera" The Times
Lo conoces como el fundador de Microsoft; el multimillonario filantrópico y de buen corazón que ha donado fondos interminables a buenas causas en todo el mundo. Pero hay otro lado de Bill Gates.
En esta investigación intrépida e innovadora, Tim Schwab ofrece a los lectores una contra-narrativa, una en la que Gates ha utilizado su enfoque monopolístico en los negocios para acumular un impresionante nivel de control sobre las políticas públicas, la investigación científica y los medios de comunicación. Ya sea que esté impulsando nuevos estándares educativos en Estados Unidos, reformas sanitarias en la India o la agricultura industrializada en África, la experimentación social desenfrenada de Gates ha demostrado no solo ser antidemocrática, sino también ineficaz.
Todo lo cual plantea la pregunta: ¿por qué los súper ricos deberían poder transformar su riqueza en poder político, y hasta dónde pueden llegar?
'Un trabajo extraordinario y detallado de periodismo de investigación' The Telegraph
