Jessica Livingston writes startup and technology-business nonfiction built from direct conversations with founders. Founders at Work collects extended interviews with people behind companies including Apple, PayPal, Hotmail, Yahoo and Blogger, asking what happened during the uncertain early stages before those businesses became established names. The emphasis is on product decisions, failed ideas, fundraising, co-founder relationships and the improvised nature of building a company rather than on polished retrospective formulas. Because each chapter uses a different founder's account, the book works as a set of case studies rather than a single management system. It fits entrepreneurship, startup history, technology business and founder interviews. Read more Less
