Download or read book Source Code written by Bill Gates and published by Random House. This book was released on 2025-02-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origin story of one of the most influential and transformative business leaders and philanthropists of the modern age The business triumphs of Bill Gates are widely known: the twenty-year-old who dropped out of Harvard to start a software company that became an industry giant and changed the way the world works and lives; the billionaire many times over who turned his attention to philanthropic pursuits to address climate change, global health, and U.S. education. Source Code is not about Microsoft or the Gates Foundation or the future of technology. It’s the human, personal story of how Bill Gates became who he is today: his childhood, his early passions and pursuits. It’s the story of his principled grandmother and ambitious parents, his first deep friendships and the sudden death of his best friend; of his struggles to fit in and his discovery of a world of coding and computers in the dawn of a new era; of embarking in his early teens on a path that took him from midnight escapades at a nearby computer center to his college dorm room, where he sparked a revolution that would change the world. Bill Gates tells this, his own story, for the first time: wise, warm, revealing, it’s a fascinating portrait of an American life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bill Gates – The Story This book, the first biography on Bill Gates, has been adapted and published in many countries around the world: The USA, China, Japan, India, South Korea, Israel, Hungary ... It was completely updated in 2020. Long hailed as a technological prodigy, Bill Gates conquered the world with his software programs. When he had become the wealthiest man on the planet, the U.S. government expressed serious concerns about Microsoft's "abuse of dominance". During the 2000's, Bill Gates became a philanthropist. He is convinced that he has saved millions of lives, particularly in Africa. However, he is the subject of a thousand controversies. This book, which was updated in 2020, strives to give all the information needed to understand what drives this extraordinary personality. Bill Gates and the Saga of Microsoft tells the story of the youth of a gifted man named Bill Gates who became a champion of computers in high school, created Microsoft as soon as the first microcomputer appeared, and showed an incredible ability to seize opportunities and to exploit them relentlessly. And how, starting from scratch, he became the richest man in the USA and then in the world. We follow Gates through a thousand twists and turns: • How does a 21-year-old manage to persuade the titan of IBM to do business with him? • The desert crossing of Windows over 7 years. • How Gates managed to impose himself on the vast majority of the planet, with a mixture of genius and questionable monopolistic maneuvers. • Why the U.S. government accused him of abuse of dominance. • His gradual conversion to humanitarian work, with choices that may have come as a surprise. This book was originally written by Daniel Ichbiah when he was a journalist specializing in new technologies

Download or read book Hard Drive written by James Wallace and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1993-06 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true story behind the rise of a tyrannical genius, how he transformed an industry, and why everyone is out to get him.In this fascinating expos , two investigative reporters trace the hugely successful career of Microsoft founder Bill Gates. Part entrepreneur, part enfant terrible, Gates has become the most powerful -- and feared -- player in the computer industry, and arguably the richest man in America. In Hard Drive, investigative reporters Wallace and Erickson follow Gates from his days as an unkempt thirteen-year-old computer hacker to his present-day status as a ruthless billionaire CEO. More than simply a "revenge of the nerds" story though, this is a balanced analysis of a business triumph, and a stunningly driven personality. The authors have spoken to everyone who knows anything about Bill Gates and Microsoft -- from childhood friends to employees and business rivals who reveal the heights, and limits, of his wizardry. From Gates's singular accomplishments to his equally extraordinary brattiness, arrogance, and hostility (the atmosphere is so intense at Microsoft that stressed-out programmers have been known to ease the tension of their eighty-hour workweeks by exploding homemade bombs), this is a uniquely revealing glimpse of the person who has emerged as the undisputed king of a notoriously brutal industry.
