Review:

Praise for Michael Wolff's BURN RATE

""Burn Rate" has a terrific feel for the crazy deals, the characters, and the clashing bicoastal cultures of the Internet." --Deborah Stead, "New York Times"

""Burn Rate" is the real deal: a smart, thoughtful, funny, knowing, clear-eyed, candid and altogether exhilarating insider's chronicle of the new media business--that is, the new media 'business.' If there's a more honest and entertaining book on the digital revolution, I haven't seen it." --Kurt Andersen, columnist at "The New Yorker"

"Wolff has given us the best account of both the lure and the frustration of the Internet." --Peter Martin, "Financial Times
"
""Burn Rate" is a hilarious and frightening account of the life of an Internet startup."
--Amy Cortese, "BusinessWeek"

"Wolff, a nimble writer with a knack for spotting colorful details, moves the story along at movie-of-the-week pace." --Katie Hafner, "New York Times Book Review"
"From the Hardcover edition."
