Description
Bad Blood: a shocking true story of corporate fraud and scandal set in the world of Silicon Valley biotech. Elizabeth Holmes, seen as the female Steve Jobs, founded Theranos, a multibillion-dollar startup that promised to revolutionize the medical industry with a machine that would make blood testing faster and easier.
However, behind the scenes, a culture of intimidation and secrecy prevailed, technology repeatedly failed, and incorrect results were sent to real patients, with devastating consequences. John Carreyrou, a prize-winning journalist, investigates the biggest corporate fraud since Enron, a tale of ambition and scandal that reads like a crime thriller.
With exclusive access to the whistleblowers and the inner workings of Theranos, Carreyrou reveals the shocking truth behind the rise and collapse of this once-promising startup. A gripping and riveting account of corporate greed, ambition, and the devastating consequences of unchecked power.
