The full inside story of the breathtaking rise and shocking collapse of Theranos, the multibillion-dollar biotech startup, by the prize-winning journalist who first broke the story and pursued it to the end, despite pressure from its charismatic CEO and threats by her lawyers.
In 2014, Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes was widely seen as the female Steve Jobs: a brilliant Stanford dropout whose startup "unicorn" promised to revolutionize the medical industry with a machine that would make blood testing significantly faster and easier. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, Theranos sold shares in a fundraising round that valued the company at more than $9 billion, putting Holmes's worth at an estimated $4.7 billion. There was just one problem: The technology didn't work.
A riveting story of the biggest corporate fraud since Enron, a tale of ambition and hubris set amid the bold promises of Silicon Valley.

评分 评分文/夏丽柠 在美国记者约翰·卡雷鲁的非虚构作品《坏血》中,希拉洛斯(Theranos)公司的女老板伊丽莎白·霍姆斯,在美国硅谷被称为“女版乔布斯”。她在自己并不算长的创业生涯里,缔造了一个近乎完美的医疗神话。虽然乔布斯说过,“创新决定了你是领袖还是跟随者。”霍姆斯明...
写得妙!简直和看悬疑小说一样。商场如战场,血腥多灾。Holmes虽能将诸大佬玩弄于股掌,但没能力研发产品、没能力管理公司,最终身败名裂。同时看到了言论自由的重要性。记者即是战士,舍命报道。
评分Book of the year (by fat margin)!!! 本来以为是女骗子的独角戏,结果是一场精彩无比动人心魄的群戏。这群雄心勃勃、骄傲自大又急于求成的人啊,简直就是当今商业世界的生动白描。

评分全书最唏嘘的一段就是女主把George Schultz这个近百岁的大神耍得团团转,不惜和自己亲孙子决裂甚至差点搭上亲孙子的前途,说什么也要力保她。所以大家对老年人陷入诈骗宽容点吧…真的比中邪还可怕…
