I’m Feeling Lucky. The confessions of Google employee number 59. Douglas Edwards. 2011. ISBN 9780547416991. The book is exactly as titled. An unvarnished description of 5 years with Google. It is a testimony that in order to break through today a technology company needs to do something exceptional. Edwards was a fifty plus year old journalist who caught a ride on a rocket. He is a good writer making this read like a novel. The characters, the culture and the chaos all ring true to anyone who has spent the time in a technology company. Worthy book for your summer reading.
