Description
Offers a sweeping account of the Bay Area in the age of the tech boom, taking a look at the dark side of it's success: overheated bubbles and spectacular crashes; exploding inequality and millions of underpaid workers; a boiling housing crisis, mass displacement, and severe environmental damage; a delusional tech elite and complicity with the worst in American politics. --Adapted from publisher description.
