In "Facebook," celebrated technology author Steven Levy embarks on a compelling journey through the corridors of power within one of the world's most influential and scrutinized companies. With unparalleled access to its enigmatic founder, Mark Zuckerberg, and COO Sheryl Sandberg over three years, Levy unravels the complex tapestry of ambition, innovation, and controversy that defines Facebook. From its inception in a Harvard dorm room to its ascendancy as a global behemoth with nearly three billion users, Levy captures the essence of a platform that has redefined how we connect, communicate, and perceive the digital age. Levy's narrative is not just a chronicle of Facebook's meteoric rise but a critical examination of its impact on society, politics, and personal privacy. Drawing from hundreds of interviews, both within and outside the company, he sheds light on the internal struggles, ethical dilemmas, and external pressures that have shaped Facebook's decisions and its trajectory. As the digital giant faces unprecedented challenges and scrutiny, "Facebook" offers an essential reflection on the role of technology in our lives and the price of innovation at scale.
