Die ganz persönliche Geschichte eines Jahrhundertcharakters. Die geschäftlichen Erfolge von Bill Gates sind weithin bekannt: der 20-Jährige, der sein Studium in Harvard abbrach, um ein Softwareunternehmen zu gründen, das zu einem Branchenriesen wurde und die Art und Weise, wie die Welt arbeitet und lebt, veränderte; der mehrfache Milliardär, der sich philanthropischen Aufgaben zuwandte, um den Klimawandel, die globale Gesundheit und die Bildung anzugehen.

Allen has rewritten the book from start to finish, tweaking his classic text with important perspectives on the new workplace, and adding material that will make the book fresh and relevant for years to come.
