Book Overview

New York Times bestseller

Few are better positioned to illuminate the vagaries of this transformation than Galloway, a tech entrepreneur, author and professor at New York University's Stern School. In brisk prose and catchy illustrations, he vividly demonstrates how the largest technology companies turned the crisis of the pandemic into the market-share-grabbing opportunity of a lifetime. --The New York Times

As good an analysis as you could wish to read. --The Financial Times

From bestselling author and NYU Business School professor Scott Galloway comes a keenly insightful, urgent analysis of who stands to win and who's at risk to lose in a post-pandemic world

The COVID-19 outbreak has turned bedrooms into offices, pitted young against old, and widened the gaps between rich and poor, red and blue, the mask wearers and the mask haters. Some businesses--like home exercise company Peloton, video conference software maker Zoom, and Amazon--woke up to find themselves crushed under an avalanche of consumer demand. Others--like the restaurant, travel, hospitality, and live entertainment industries--scrambled to escape obliteration.

But as New York Times bestselling author Scott Galloway argues, the pandemic has not been a change agent so much as an accelerant of trends already Read More chevron_right

   Good read-inspiring and real
The author is inspiring and real, not just another “ lofty '' university or corporate America perspective. Provides good and executable recommendations for 19 times Post-COVID. Economic and political analysis is excellent. Worth reading :

   Hard to take the author seriously when ...
He spends so much time on Amazon railing. Here, however, we are purchasing his book on Amazon. This reeks of hypocrisy on spending levels of Republican.

   Good, Not Great
I bought the book hoping it would help me see what is coming Post Corona around the corner. While no one knows, the author has many good insights and helped me to think about what comes next. It is a rant about what is wrong about America and our taxation and privilege system. Much I agree, much I don 't, but it is all off-topic. It appears as if the author ran out of material and the fifth chapter was used to fill the book. In a few months, much is already outdated.
 
5
   Humorous and Insightful
An exceptionally well written book infused with his signature humor and clarity. Unlike most non-fiction writers who feel compelled to make the same point over and over to 300+ pages, Professor Galloway makes his points with brevity, allowing for greater breadth of themes. For those who want to understand the economy of today and where companies and industries are likely headed, this is the book to read.

   Didn’t finish this one
Can 't finish it because it was just too boring. I wouldn 't recommend the purchase. Just read the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal.

   this is something you want to keep on your bookshelf for the future.
Perhaps more than you wanted to know about Coronavirus, but consider this. The history of America's greatest challenge is its greatest challenge.

   Chapters 4 & 5 Should Be Read by ALL Members of Congress
A very good commentary on where we are headed after COVID-19 as we move on. The first three chapters are fast moving Galloway - Analyses of Big Tech. Chapter 4, Higher Education, is recommended reading for everyone and especially for every member of Congress. The same applies to chapter 5, which deals with the role of government and the current state of capitalism. In both of these chapters, Galloway gives an audio-common sense analysis and clear SOLUTIONS. If I were sure that they would read it, I would give a copy to each member of Congress. Instead, I send my notated copy only to my House Representative Mikie Sherrill.

   Great Disappointment
I thought it would paint a picture of the post-covid economy and help to understand what opportunities might be created and what could be listed to replace them. I learned not much from it. Just a general bit of wee stuff with a sprinkling of covid induced dislocations. Covid turned himself into a rentier to milk the masses using Scott Galloway as an opportunity. I believe that's how entrepreneurs think and act.
 
3
   Half-great, half off-topic
Started with lots of relevance to what is promised by the title. About halfway through it became a typical business lecture morphing into and out of Galloway's thoughts on privilege and politics. Not that his opinions and insights aren 't interesting. Also some weird errors. One chart illustrating the gender race of venture capitalists has labels reading “Latina andor Latino” and “Latina”. The labels should have read “Latina” or “Latino” for someone in so in tune with political correctness.

   Required reading
This is the most informative narrative I've read about why the country is in the shape it is and what needs to be done to solve the problem. This book should be read by everyone. And the incoming administration should tap Mr. Galloway for its chief economic adviser.
