    About this ebook

    He is Thomas Edison and Henry Ford rolled into one -- except that William Henry Gates III maybe smarter and more successful than either.He is America's richest man, and on the corporate landscape, he may well be the most feared. In less than a generation, Bill Gates has done nothing less than change the way we live and work.

    Here is Bill Gate's story, taking you inside the mind of this brilliant visionary and inside the rise of Microsoft, the world's most succesful corporation. What unique combination of historical factors and personal qualities made Gates the right man at the right time? How did he invent an industry from scratch, and what choices -- from people to products -- made Microsoft the resounding success it has become? How has the company faces Apple, Netscape, and its other competitors and partners? From Microsoft's Redmond, Washington, campus to Gates' relationships with women and with other business people, like fellow billionaire Warren Buffett, here is a compelling portrait of a unique American citizen at the dawn of the twenty-first century: a man whose career, and his effect on our world, has only begun.

      The book is a summary of quotes from Bill and explanations from the author based on those quotes. It fell more like a lengthy Facebook post rather than a book but it kept me going to the end. It's light reading with some interesting information in between.
      If you want to find a history of Bill Gates in bite size chunks this is for you.

      The most amazing piece of information is seeing he dates on the quotes such as the fact that in 1995 Bill was talking about a Wallet PC that would replace money in about 20 years. He was somehow in the ballpark.

      A really great set of quotes from Bill Gates in this book - probably one of my favorite tech people of all times because of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
