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.
I still remembered searching WIPO for Theranos's patents and FDA establishment registration back in 2015, and was disappointed to find that there's little evidence that this company was worth 9 billion. I've been since following the Theranos's downfall, whi...
评分作为液体活检行业人员: 1-指尖血,本来就混杂有组织液等,不适宜做定量检验,这姐姐 也确实是书没读完,底子不扎实,这种原料就不好,当然和他现在的技术水平也没达到。 2-作为第三方实验室,技术作假 ,用其他公司的产品来检验,无视质量规范。 3-董事会没一个懂技术的,一个...
评分这几乎是一个难分「梦想」和「谎言」的时代。九零后的币圈明星一边创造了「巴菲特午餐」的新竞拍纪录,一边又顺手「还击」了当年看他如同「打量骗子的眼神」的旧日宿怨。他引以为傲的「高市值」为他带来了比当年更加「宽容」的环境,舆论关键词从「欺骗」变成了更加政治正确的...

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…
评分九月的时候,读了一半不想读了。倒不是写得不好,主要是主人公把创业时该犯的错误全犯了,简直是创业失败教科书。
评分Bill Gates推荐Bad Blood一定是想让大家都来看看死对头David Boies的丑事。
评分类似政治惊悚剧,写得非常精彩,作者开始调查后的几章节奏尤其好。主要聚焦于Theranos对内的混乱管理以及对外的谎言和bully。可惜作者没有进一步采访那些被忽悠的和没有被忽悠的VC或者董事会成员,因此也难以真正理解创始人的魅力和缺陷在哪里。本书遗留的问题挺多:初创公司如何平衡科研和商业化,生命科学的热潮究竟有多可靠,如何界定商业秘密和NDA的范围,违法行为本身是否可以受到商业机密法律的保护(个人感到在中国是不受保护的)。希望可以看到更多法律分析(但大概没什么人愿意看)。总的想法是,尽职调查真的很重要!
