Despite decades of media scrutiny and six of Grove's own books, there remains a powerful element of mystery about him. this definitive biography, by a Harvard Business School professor with unprecedented access, finally cracks the code of who Andy Grove really is, how is mind works, how he attacks impossible problems and how he leads others to exceed their own expectations of themselves., Andy Grove, the CEO of Intel during its years of explosive growth, is on the shortlist of America's most admired business people. This is an inspiring biography of the highly respected business legend that will enthral anyone who cares about technology or leadership.

    I am very happy with my purchase. The book was wrapped in cardboard and padded envelope to protect the book during transit which was much appreciated. Tracking was also available which is always a bonus. I would happily deal with the seller again in the future should the opportunity arise.
