Description
This incisive work offers an inside look at Facebook’s rise from ambitious startup to one of the most powerful and controversial companies in the world. Drawing on extensive reporting and interviews, it explores the platform’s influence on politics, elections, privacy, misinformation, and public discourse, as well as the internal tensions surrounding its unprecedented reach. The book examines the difficult choices faced by executives and employees as they balance growth, innovation, profit, and accountability. Timely and deeply reported, it is a compelling study of technology’s power to reshape society—and the human costs of leaving that power unchecked.
