Description

Bad Blood: A gripping story of corporate fraud and ambition set in Silicon Valley.

In 2014, Elizabeth Holmes was hailed as the next Steve Jobs, with her startup Theranos promising to revolutionize the medical industry. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, the company valued at over $9 billion, but its technology didn't work. Erroneous results put patients in danger, leading to misdiagnoses and unnecessary treatments.

Rigorously reported and fearlessly written, this book is a tale of hubris set amidst the bold promises of Silicon Valley, revealing the biggest corporate fraud since Enron.
