In the weird glow of the dying millennium, Michael Lewis set out on a safari through Silicon Valley to find the world's most important technology entrepreneur. He found this in Jim Clark, a man whose achievements include the founding of three separate billion-dollar companies. Lewis also found much more, and the result--the best-selling book The New New Thing--is an ingeniously conceived history of the Internet revolution.

Geoffrey Cain is a journalist, author, and technologist.

The New New Thing is such a well-written book on Silicon Valley in the mid-late 1990s and why isn't Michael Lewis on Twitter? Too busy getting the real writing done?

Praise for this book

The most significant business story since the days of Henry Ford. . . . Lewis achieves a novelistic elegance.-- "Boston Globe"
Remarkable. . . . Clark proves to be a character as enthralling as any in American fiction or non-fiction. . . . [A] great story . . . with prose that ranges from the beautiful to the witty to the breathtaking.--Fred Moody "Wall Street Journal"
A splendid, entirely satisfying book, intelligent and fun and revealing and troubling in the correct proportions, resolutely skeptical but not at all cynical.--Kurt Andersen "New York Times Book Review"
