Solo que es pesado de leer. Pero en presentación, calidad de tapa y Envio, perfecto

Amazon Unbound is a great book and an excellent follow-up to The Everything Store, and you don't need to be an Amazon buff to enjoy it. The book is a fascinating portrait of Bezos as he's navigated his transition from someone famous in the tech world to someone who's famous, period.The reason Bezos was interesting in this book to me is not because he's now the world's wealthiest person - what kept me turning the page were: Stone's very natural style of writing - I found myself reading multiple chapters at a time without really realizing it, as the story flows so easily from one topic to the next -- that's not easy to do; the fact that every page deepened my understanding of Bezos and what makes him tick as a kind of psychological study, even though Bezos did not actually sit for an interview for the book (which I think actually works to the book's advantage, because you wind up learning about him a better way, which is through his interactions -- good and bad -- with people in his orbit); and because Stone has done the hard work of finding the right people to tell this story and you can tell that he knows the Amazon story so deeply that you are getting the information from a place of real authority.The book works brilliantly on many levels and it's the definition of balanced journalism -- you get a sense of what's made Amazon one of the most successful technology companies the world has ever seen, and how hard all of that has been to accomplish, while at the same time getting an unvarnished inside look at how the company has responded as it's drawn the ire of Congress and labor groups and many of its own seller partners.Bezos is presented as a complicated, brilliant, flawed person, and it feels like an authentic, well-rounded presentation of who he actually is and what the universal lessons are that can be learned from his story -- which is a high compliment and a hard thing to pull off while constructing an entertaining read.Highly recommended!
