Críticas

One imagines that Larry Ellison, creator and leader of Oracle, the second largest technology company in the world (second only to Microsoft), would want to swiftly perform a kind of magical 'Ctrl Alt Delete' keystroke and have this book - and its author - permanently deleted from the planet. But he can't, so in Everyone Else Must Fail we have a no-holds barred account of how one man rose from the proverbial lowly roots - he was born to a single mother and given away to relatives - and ended up running a corporate giant, antagonising just about everyone he worked with in the process. It's easy to think of one customer for it: a certain William Gates of Seattle, perhaps?
