Hardback. Zustand: Good. A definitive, deeply reported look at the origin story of PayPal and the creation of the PayPal Mafia, a group that includes Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Reid Hoffman, and Max Levchin--among many others vital to the company's creation but whose stories have never been told until now. Out of PayPal came the most powerful players in Silicon Valley and a new template for entrepreneurship in our modern age. Today, the world knows them as the PayPal Mafia. Out of the founding employees of PayPal have come billionaire start-up executives, Academy Award-winning producers, and high government officials. Together, they constitute the most influential network in Silicon Valley, responsible for forming, funding, or advising two decades worth of major tech companies from SpaceX to Facebook, YouTube to Yelp, Palantir to LinkedIn, and many more. And yet, for all that, the story of the company where they all first met has gone untold. Before they became a mafia, they were the unknown, uncertain creators of the company PayPal. In The Founders: The Story of PayPal and the Entrepreneurs Who Shaped Silicon Valley, award-winning author and biographer Jimmy Soni explores the earliest venture of some of today's foremost business titans. Based on hundreds of interviews and with unprecedented access to thousands of pages of never-before-seen material, Soni's narrative digs deep into the founding of a company whose creators have changed how we use the internet and technology today. It is a story of sweeping, nail-biting entrepreneurial success--the definitive account of how a generation of technology founders came to learn and practice their craft.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. NAMED A BEST BOOK OF 2022 BY THE NEW YORKER National Bestseller * New York Times Editors' Choice * Financial Times Books to Read in 2022 A SABEW BEST IN BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS FINALIST A deeply reported.bracingly written (Walter Isaacson, bestselling author of Code Breaker) and gripping account of PayPal's origins and a vivid portrait of the geeks and contrarians who made its meteoric rise possible (The Wall Street Journal)--including Elon Musk, Amy Rowe Klement, Peter Thiel, Julie Anderson, Max Levchin, Reid Hoffman, and many others whose stories have never been shared. Today, PayPal's founders and earliest employees are considered the technology industry's most powerful network. Since leaving PayPal, they have formed, funded, and advised the leading companies of our era, including Tesla, Facebook, YouTube, SpaceX, Yelp, Palantir, and LinkedIn, among many others. As a group, they have driven 21st-century innovation and entrepreneurship. Their names stir passions; they're as controversial as they are admired. Yet, for all their influence, the story of where they first started has gone largely untold. Before igniting the commercial space race or jumpstarting social media's rise, they were the unknown creators of a scrappy online payments start-up called PayPal. In building what became one of the world's foremost companies, they faced bruising competition, internal strife, the emergence of widespread online fraud, and the devastating dot-com bust of the 2000s. Their success was anything but certain. In The Founders: The Story of PayPal and the Entrepreneurs Who Shaped Silicon Valley, award-winning author and biographer Jimmy Soni explores PayPal's turbulent early days. With hundreds of interviews and unprecedented access to thousands of pages of internal material, he shows how the seeds of so much of what shapes our world today--fast-scaling digital start-ups, cashless currency concepts, mobile money transfer--were planted two decades ago. He also reveals the stories of countless individuals who were left out of the front-page features and banner headlines but who were central to PayPal's success. Described as an intensely magnetic chronicle (The New York Times) and engrossing (Business Insider), The Founders is a story of iteration and inventiveness--the products of which have cast a long and powerful shadow over modern life. This narrative illustrates how this rare assemblage of talent came to work together and how their collaboration changed our world forever.…
