INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

"Disrupted by Dan Lyons is the best book about Silicon Valley today."---Los Angeles Times

"Hysterical."---Kara Swisher, Recode

"Wildly entertaining."---Ashlee Vance, New York Times-bestselling author of Elon Musk

For twenty-five years Dan Lyons was a magazine writer at the top of his profession--until one Friday morning when he received a phone call: Poof. His job no longer existed. "I think they just want to hire younger people," his boss at Newsweek told him. Fifty years old and with a wife and two young kids, Dan was, in a word, screwed. Then an idea hit. Dan had long reported on Silicon Valley and the tech explosion. Why not join it? HubSpot, a Boston start-up, was flush with $100 million in venture capital. They offered Dan a pile of stock options for the vague role of "marketing fellow." What could go wrong?

HubSpotters were true believers: They were making the world a better place ... by selling email spam. The office vibe was frat house meets cult compound: The party began at four thirty on Friday and lasted well into the night; "shower pods" became hook-up dens; a push-up club met at noon in the lobby, while nearby, in the "content factory," Nerf gun fights raged. Groups went on "walking meetings," and Dan's absentee boss sent cryptic emails about employees who had "graduated" (read: been fired). In the middle of all this was Dan, exactly twice the age of the average HubSpot employee, and literally old enough to be the father of most of his co-workers, sitting at his desk on his bouncy-ball "chair."

Mixed in with Lyons's uproarious tale of his rise and fall at Hubspot is a trenchant analysis of the start-up world, a de facto conspiracy between those who start companies and those who fund them, a world where bad ideas are rewarded with hefty investments, where companies blow money lavishing perks on their post-collegiate workforces, and where everybody is trying to hang on just long enough to reach an IPO and cash out.

With a cast of characters that includes devilish angel investors, fad-chasing venture capitalists, entrepreneurs and "wantrapreneurs," bloggers and brogrammers, social climbers and sociopaths, Disrupted is a gripping and definitive account of life in the (second) tech bubble.

##太棒瞭,真實的矽榖新創世界,非看不可 如果早十年或者早五年拿到這本書就好瞭,這樣我就可以把書摔在畫大餅的老闆臉上,讓他親手把他的虛僞一口口吞下去。 身在北京時,常有一種融入時代的錯覺,你穿過霧霾,來到地鐵站,鑽入灰頭土臉的上班人群之中,隔壁的小哥張口就是A輪融資、B輪融資,周末下午,你來到一間咖啡...

##這本書個人評價7分。書中講述的是五到十年前美國矽榖創業公司的“虛僞和瘋狂”,由於持續的通貨膨脹,市場上熱錢很多,資本都趕著給這些創業公司投資。拿到融資的公司創始人們,難免沾沾自喜,各種奢侈消費揮霍無度,同時一方麵到處演講炫耀自己的不凡,另一方麵也通過使用下作...

##The book is really entertaining and has the same flavor of sarcasm as the show 'Silicon Valley' Dan has produced. I like the way he viewed the bubbled start-up world from a different perspective. A lot of people who are deeply entrenched in this bubble enjo...

##Disrupted是原紐約新聞周刊記者Dan Lyons的一本痛批矽榖創業公司文化弊病的紀實小說。這本書的中文譯名為《瘋狂的獨角獸》,在豆瓣上僅僅有55人讀過 —— 但在海外卻曾是一本長期占據書店顯目位置的暢銷書。 作者Dan以52歲“高齡”入職瞭一傢科技創業公司。原本在眾人眼中非常...
