Synopsis
The basis of a four-part prime-time BBC series, Michael Lewis' new book explores how digital technology, and the internet in particular, has changed the way we live. He argues that not only does our generation now have the easiest access to more information than ever before, but more importantly this has changed our attitudes to how we run our lives. In his inimitable, amusing style, bestselling author Michael Lewis has written a marvellously accessible portrait of modern times.

Review
Praise for THE NEW NEW THING: 'You cannot help trusting Lewis. Sometimes maniacally funny, sometimes mournful, this is a fascinating journey into the Wild West of American capitalism' -- Daily Telegraph 'Brilliantly entertaining and informative' -- Sunday Telegraph 'If you want to understand the phenomenon that was California's Silicon Valley in the 1990s, you won't find a better book that this ... hugely enjoyable' -- Charles Handy 'A splendid, entirely satisfying book, intelligent and fun and revealing and troubling in the correct proportions, resolutely skeptical but not at all cynical, brimming with fabulous scenes as well as sharp analysis' -- New York Times
