He created the most recognized brand name on the Internet, became for a time one of the richest men in the world, and was crowned "the king of cyber-commerce."Yet for all the media exposure, the inside story of Amazon.com has never really been told. In this revealing, unauthorized account, Robert Spector, journalist and best-selling author, gives us this up-to-date, fast-paced, behind-the-scenes story of the company's creation and rise, its tumultuous present, and its uncertain future.

What Hacker News says
- I read this book http://www.amazon.com/Amazon-com-Get-Fast-Robert-Spector/dp/... back soon after it came out after finding it randomly in my school library and remember thinking it was good. Its a little old now though.
- Fun fact: it was changed because of concern people might hear 'cadaver' instead of 'cadabra'.
(or so this book said: http://www.amazon.com/amazon-com-Inside-Revolutionary-Busine...)
