John Carreyrou is a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter at The Wall Street Journal. For his extensive coverage of Theranos, Carreyrou was awarded the George Polk Award for Financial Reporting, the Gerald Loeb Award for Distinguished Business and Financial Journalism in the category of beat reporting, and the Barlett & Steele Silver Award for Investigative Business Journalism. Carreyrou lives in Brooklyn with his wife and three children.
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.

Bad Blood 下载 mobi epub pdf 电子书##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 评分 评分 评分##对很多有关公司管理的问题都在我上一家公司的工作经历中有过似曾相识的感觉,但医疗行业涉及人命,对公司的管理水平、自查机制、道德底线的要求都更高。想象这个公司如果在国内创立,有没有可能会能够支撑更久?国内跟风的有钱老板/投资/投机机构和钱也非常多,所有已投资的投资人和创业公司组成利益相关体,可能会宁可知道有问题也要一起掩盖好找到下一个接盘侠。不过一直不上市的计划可能会让很多人望而却步,毕竟终极接盘侠是普罗大众。 这书其实讲了个挺明白的道理,专业的人做专业的事情,Elizabeth和最初支持她的大佬们都没有系统扎实的医学背景,完全是用工程师的思路在做这件事情,遇到问题他们的解决办法是“边吹边解决”,但医学突破不是工程技术问题,不可能一蹴而就,越是有deliver的压力,就越有跨越红线的危险。
评分 评分##开头铺得还不错,感觉像是个豪门浪女,后来发现就是个三代破落户。后面陷入了反复攻击同一问题的鬼打墙,找了几十个人来作证Sunny和Elizabeth的管理近乎恐吓暴政,然后产品不完善的情况下到处兜售。对于为什么有名望的旧贵族、市场份额巨大的药企买Theranos的诡计,统统归咎于小妞的个人说服力和低沉的嗓音(小妞具体说了什么又没调查到),这就很滑稽了。我看了她好几个采访,这个女的其实语言效率极其低,逻辑也不算好。 是什么魅力让她真的说服大家去接受一个半吊子产品? 美元上印着 in god we trust,还是要深挖一下,为什么这些人怕被 missed out, 他们相信这个小妞背后其实在相信什么? 比较二流吧。传记作家和调查记者都是靠写作对象活的,你不是真正的爱她的是畏惧她我觉得还是不配拿普
评分##写得很一般啊。。。
