THE GOOGLE STORY

Narrated with classy restraint by Stephen Hoye, this story is so exciting it's inescapable. Two precocious sons of professors, one with unbounded curiosity about all things mathematical and the other with an uncanny gift for deal making, created the search engine that revolutionized how we find things on the World Wide Web. Their unconventional story of humor, social responsibility, and relentless curiosity rises above most dot-com sagas because the protagonists are so entertaining. From their beginnings at Stanford through the initial public offering and all the turf wars and intellectual challenges that followed, the story of how these two characters became gazillionaires is totally engaging.
