How much do you really know about Google's founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin?

The Google Guys skips past the general Google story and focuses on what really drives the company's founders. Richard L. Brandt shows the company as the brainchild of two brilliant individuals and looks at Google's business decisions in light of its founders' ambition and beliefs.

Larry is the main strategist, with business acumen and practical drive, while Sergey is the primary technologist and idealist, with brilliant ideas and strong moral positions. But they work closely together, almost like complementary halves of a single brain.

Through interviews with current and former employees, competitors, partners, and senior Google management, plus conversations with the founders themselves, Brandt demystifies the company while clarifying a number of misconceptions.

As an experienced hardware focused engineer I have not followed any of the buzz about google. I have used google for many many years and find the tool useful for doing engineering research and solving technical issues. So reading this book helped me understand much more than I knew about how google is managed and guided.

PRO

Easy to read Easy to Understand
Good basic information for those wanting to know about google
Like Google 101

CON

Book did not make me want to work at google (at least the book seems to indicates a youth focused company that does not seek many experience technical people)

OVERALL

A good read and I enjoyed it. A good place to start if you are interest in understanding Google

Brandt does a very good job of reviewing the past and present, and the good and bad procedures and processes that Google has been and is using to maintain the excitement of a startup and to recruit and keep the "brightest and best" of employees. An excellent book with an insiders view of a very successful company.

It is interesting to read how Sergey and Larry run google and still get involved with subjects outside of their primary business. You can easily see that these two guys are brilliant. The one negative I had with the book was that it did not go very far into the personal lives of the founders.

starts promisingly, with its breezy narration of Larry and Sergey's early years, how they came together while in university and how they managed to get two top venture capitalists to back them on their terms to start the mother of all internet companies

I was looking for more insight into their genius , but a good read. Great first book on Google guys not definitive last read.
