This is the remarkable behind-the-scenes story of the creation and growth of Airbnb, the online lodging platform that has become, in under a decade, the largest provider of accommodations in the world. At first just the wacky idea of cofounders Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, and Nathan Blecharczyk, Airbnb has disrupted the $500 billion hotel industry, and its $30 billion valuation is now larger than that of Hilton and close to that of Marriott. Airbnb is beloved by the millions of members in its “host” community and the travelers they shelter every night. And yet, even as the company has blazed such an unexpected path, this is the first book solely dedicated to the phenomenon of Airbnb.
Fortune editor Leigh Gallagher explores the success of Airbnb along with the more controversial side of its story. Regulators want to curb its rapid expansion; hotel industry leaders wrestle with the disruption it has caused them; and residents and customers alike struggle with the unintended consequences of opening up private homes for public consumption. This is also the first in‑depth study of Airbnb's leader, Brian Chesky, the quirky and curious young CEO, as he steers the company into new markets and increasingly uncharted waters.
##热情洋溢,适合年轻创业者的小品。

评分##作者拿腔拿调很讨厌,Chesky应该比书里写的有趣多了。
评分##Airbnb经历了典型的找方向 - 做增长 - 抓管理的创业公司三阶段,然后现在正在面临第四个阶段挑战:第二曲线。读完本书,最惊奇的确实是为何这三位founder没有招聘如Eric Schmidt,或是Shelby Sandberg这样的所谓Adult CEO/COO,而就是自己把Airbnb带到了这样的境地。作者给出了Learning Animal的解释,我觉得固然好的创始人都需要拼命学习,但是这似乎并不足以解释。有意思……

评分##毕竟不是创始人自己写的
评分##感觉我司出钱了...... 但是不能找个文字水平高一点的吗
评分##书里面的故事和the upstarts有至少八成的重叠,是什么让两个不同的作者在同一年出版的两本书中产生这么多重复?我能想到的唯一合理解释就是这家公司的PR直接把添加了滤镜的公司发展史发给了两个作者,后者再简单修改一下然后出版。没有可信度。不过也能看出作者的水平:这位比写了两本亚马逊传记的那位写的糟糕得多。
