Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup
Author: John Carreyrou
Format: Paperback
Journalist John Carreyrou tells the full inside story of Theranos, the biotech startup that rose spectacularly before collapsing in scandal. In 2014 its founder, Stanford dropout Elizabeth Holmes, was hailed as the female Steve Jobs, promising to transform medicine with a device to make blood testing faster and simpler; backed by prominent investors, the company was valued at more than $9 billion.
The only problem was that the technology did not work. Having first broken the story and pursued it despite pressure and legal threats, Carreyrou recounts the biggest corporate fraud since Enron.
