Steven Levy
Facebook: The Inside Story
Written with unprecedented access, Steven’s new book tells the story of Facebook, the company that connected the world and reaped the consequences.
Steven has been covering the digital revolution for over 35 years. He is currently Editor at Large at WIRED magazine, where he was one of its founding writers. During the height of the internet boom, he was the columnist and chief technology correspondent for Newsweek. He also wrote columns for Rolling Stone and Macworld. His seven previous books include the groundbreaking Hackers (1984); Insanely Great (1994), the history of Apple’s Macintosh computer; Crypto (2001) which won the Frankfurt Digital book prize; and In the Plex (2011), the definitive book on Google that was a New York Times bestseller and Amazon’s business book of the year.
"Levy is the dean of tech writers: Facebook's brass gave him the run of the C-suite. The result is evenhanded and devastating.”
