'Short of getting into a time machine, it's hard to imagine how
you'd get closer to capturing PayPal's rise - and understanding
the lives of its creators. A brilliant book chock full of wisdom and
lessons for business and life.'
Nir Eyal, author of Hooked: How to Control Your Attention
and Choose Your Life
Out of PayPal's ranks have come household names like Elon
Musk, Peter Thiel, Max Levchin and Reid Hoffman. 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.
Yet for all their influence, the incredible story of where
they started has gone largely untold.
In The Founders, award-winning author Jimmy Soni narrates how a
once-in-a-generation collaboration turned a scrappy start-up into
one of the most successful businesses of all time. Facing 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. But they would go on to
change our world forever.
Informed by hundreds of interviews and unprecedented access to
thousands of pages of internal material, The Founders explores
how the seeds of so much of what drives the internet today were
planted two decades ago.
