    Just Goooogle it !

    Yes! The first and foremost reason of starting reading this book is Google. I also consider Larry and Sergey as one of my idol.
    The book is about the making of Google, its transformation from just an idea to its becoming the top company. Its how the Google Guys converted their idea. Life, ideology and methods of Larry and Sergey.

    The book do contain technical terms though its worth a read.
    If Gogle Inc is known as revolution in web world than the book is sensation in readers world.

    Fun, fast and informative read!

    The Google Story is a fun, fast and informative read, told in chronological order, and written in a clear, informative writing style
    that is somewhat spoilt by the author's obvious and extreme admiration for Larry Page and Sergey Brin. The book begins with Page and
    Brin’s early family lives, characterized by remarkably similar values in academia, science, and technology. From the beginning,
    their expressed mission was to provide a free, easy to use tool to access all of the information on th...

    Very good (But doesnot cover the latest developments)

    The book starts very well and explains the basic motto ' Don't be evil' very well. The chapters are not laid like a continued story as Google's journey can't be fully covered due to its secret nature. So, there are chapters based on incidents. Plus stories are from the time before 2006 and no proper mentions or coverage are given for post 2006. But you can read for just understanding how 2 people brings innovation in everything they do defying the general trends and doing it their way.

    A nice narration of how Google was formed

    This book provides an insight into the most successful search engine-Google and how it was formed. The story is narrated wisely and the events that happened in the life of the Google guys has been described intelligently. Each and every chapter provides a different view into the making of the world's best search engine. Considering the price of the book,I think its more than the worth of the money.
