Brad Stone is senior executive editor for global technology at Bloomberg News and the author of Amazon Unbound: Jeff Bezos and the Invention of a Global Empire. The book, to be published in May 2021, continues the story that he began with The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon, a New York Times bestseller that won the 2013 Business Book of the Year Award from the Financial Times and Goldman Sachs and has been translated into more than 35 languages. He is also the author of The Upstarts: Uber, Airbnb, and the Battle for the New Silicon Valley. He is a twin, and the father of twins, and lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
From the bestselling author of The Everything Store, an unvarnished picture of Amazon’s unprecedented growth and its billionaire founder, Jeff Bezos, revealing the most important business story of our time.
Almost ten years ago, Bloomberg journalist Brad Stone captured the rise of Amazon, an internet pioneer quietly changing the way we shop online, in his bestseller The Everything Store. But ever since, Amazon has expanded exponentially, inventing novel products like Alexa and disrupting countless industries, while its workforce has quintupled in size and its valuation has soared to well over a trillion dollars. Jeff Bezos’s empire, once housed in a garage, now spans the globe. Between services like Whole Foods, Prime Video, and Amazon’s cloud computing unit, AWS, plus Bezos’s ownership of The Washington Post, it’s impossible to go a day without encountering its impact. We live in a world run, supplied, and controlled by Amazon and its iconoclast founder.
In Amazon Unbound, Brad Stone presents a deeply reported, vividly drawn portrait of how a retail upstart became one of the most powerful and feared entities in the global economy. With unprecedented access to current and former executives, employees, regulators, and critics, Stone shows how seismic changes inside the company over the past decade led to dramatic innovations, as well as to missteps that turned public sentiment against its sharp-elbowed business practices and gameshow treatment of its search for a second headquarters.
Stone also probes the evolution of Bezos himself—who started as a geeky technologist totally devoted to building Amazon, but who transformed to become a fit, disciplined billionaire with global ambitions; who ruled Amazon with an iron fist, even as he found his personal life splashed over the tabloids. As his empire expands, the book investigates how Bezos gradually pulled away from day-to-day activities at Amazon to focus on his many interests outside of it, announcing his momentous transition from CEO to executive chairman.
Definitive, timely, and revelatory, Stone has provided an unvarnished portrait of a man and company that we couldn’t imagine modern life without.

评分##不同于一般的人物传记,这本书名字虽然叫《贝佐斯传》,可是主要写的却是亚马逊,帮助理解亚马逊近10年的变化。原来和该书的作者有关,他似乎并不被贝佐斯本人和他妻子待见,甚至贝佐斯本人根本不愿意接受他的采访,尽管如此,这本书面世后叫好又叫座。下面让我们一起来品读这...
评分 评分 评分##几年前读过一网打尽,那时感觉一般,差点错失同一作者这本杰作。 工作在一家中国的互联网大厂,一直以亚马逊为神而学习,工作里面处处都是亚马逊的影子,所以读这本书时内心的共鸣是巨大的。 关于亚马逊的书,近期还有一本working backwards(逆向工作法)。那本书胜在作者是内...
