Synopsis

"Ulka Simone Mohanty provides a down-to-earth narration of this Bill Gates profile. Her impartial voice is ideal for hearing about the myriad facets of Gates, and her earnest tone personalizes the related figures who weave through the narrative. This audiobook is a study of how Gates has both shaped and punctured popular cultural phenomena, such as wealth inequality, philanthropy, power, and tech mythology. It also punctures myths about the man himself. For example, he didn’t code his way to success in his garage; he jump-started Microsoft by purchasing an operating system from a rival. Overall, this is a multifaceted look at Gates, who at various points has been the most admired man in the world AND a hated vaccine advocate, womanizer, and friend of Jeffrey Epstein."
