具體描述
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.

##2018年快讀完畢，沒讀的人不必讀瞭。大錶姐的電影會來瞭。簡單說，就是不創新的科技騙子+一幫惡棍律師事務所，竟然能夠在美國將這個騙局掩蓋瞭這麼多年。George總統的孫子去做實習生發現瞭大問題，保持自己的良心，竟然還能被惡棍律師惡意閉嘴。簡直就牛上天瞭！2018年11月正好是，基因編輯兒童在中國被廣泛討論，看來所謂的“科技狂人”由商業和資本的刺激之下，以後還是會層齣不窮的。
評分全書最唏噓的一段就是女主把George Schultz這個近百歲的大神耍得團團轉，不惜和自己親孫子決裂甚至差點搭上親孫子的前途，說什麼也要力保她。所以大傢對老年人陷入詐騙寬容點吧…真的比中邪還可怕…
