Morales H: The Story of Airbnb

The Story of Airbnb

How Three Broke Designers Reinvented Travel, Disrupted an Industry, and Built the World's Most Controversial Hospitality Company

As seen on Steven Bartlett's THE DIARY OF A CEO

The Making of a Permabear

A thrilling history of how we fell in and out of love with a technology that changed not just the world, but changed us. 'Science and technology never seem more exciting than when James Gleick is writing about them' - Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction 'Forces you to see the world with new eyes. Blending expertise with a thrilling narrative . . . I loved it!' - Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen and Eleanor 'Masterful. I learned so much and enjoyed every page of this richly researched, playful, and insightful book' - Tiffany Jenkins, author of Strangers and Intimates A supernatural instrument bringing voices from afar, the telephone burst onto the world stage 150 years ago, a triumphant story of individual ingenuity and vision. Instantly, the ability to speak across vast distances began to transform every part of life: from business organization to military tactics, from news gathering to sex work. But the story of The Telephone is also one of corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics; the race to the patent office, to make money, a contest replete with bribery, fraud and speculation. And no one, not even its inventors, realised what the telephone was good for or how ubiquitous it would become. As the telephone settled into the background - in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls - people forgot how they ever lived without it. Now, as landlines, telephone books and telephone boxes vanish into the past, science writer James Gleick - bestselling author of Chaos - shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings. 'Charts our distance-compressing, time-shifting telephonic adventure with exceptional brio and subtlety' - Stacy Schiff, author of The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams

A New History

The Telephone

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.

Success can hide a lot of pain. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is put your guard down. OVERVIEW Anthony Giannotti looked successful from the outside, but inside he was quietly falling apart. A nationally recognized barber, educator, entrepreneur, and founder of multiple thriving businesses, Giannotti had built the life he'd always wanted. But behind the packed barbershops, sold-out classes, and endless travel lived something darker: anxiety, addiction, broken relationships, crushing self-doubt, and the "black cloud" that followed him everywhere he went. Then came the morning he woke in a hotel room to the news that Anthony Bourdain had died by suicide. That moment became the razor's edge between the life he was living—and the one he still had a chance to save. No Guard is an unflinching memoir about chasing success while losing yourself, growing up in a strict religious household, finding purpose through barbering and punk rock, surviving divorce, addiction, and depression, and discovering that healing isn't found in fame, money, or another drink—it's found in finally facing the parts of yourself you've spent a lifetime trying to outrun. Raw, darkly funny, and deeply compassionate, No Guard offers an unforgettable portrait of masculinity, vulnerability, and second chances. For anyone who has wrestled with anxiety, questioned their worth, or wondered whether it's ever too late to start over, Anthony Giannotti proves that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is put your guard down.

Dream Crazy Big

Every object has a story to tell...Fine art. Priceless jewels. Museum-worthy masterpieces. In 1970s New York, the auction world was a velvet-rope affair--until Arlan Ettinger crashed the party.With his wife, Barbara, Arlan launched Guernsey's, a scrappy, anything-goes auction house that turned the industry on its head. Forget Old Masters--Guernsey's sold the unexpected, the irresistible, the downright bizarre. Doors from the legendary Chelsea Hotel. The entire contents of the SS United States. Personal treasures from JFK. If it had a story, Guernsey's could sell it--and suddenly, everyone wanted in.Part business adventure, part cultural time capsule, this is the story of the auction house that proved you don't need millions to own a piece of history--you just need curiosity, a sense of humor, and a willingness to see value where others don't. Because the real magic isn't just in what things are worth--it's in what they mean. A door, a suitcase, a scrap of paper: objects carry the lives, legends, and moments that shaped us. This book is a celebration of that invisible thread between people and things--and the surprising, often joyful ways our stories live on through what we leave behind.
