  Microsoft Corporation has been the focus of sustained success and intense public interest for more than a decade. Who were the architects of the Empire that changed the world forever, and how did they do it? This book introduces 12 of the legendary wunderkinds that created a legacy and have since retired from Microsoft to pursue a wide range of other attainments - aided, of course, by the experience and appreciating stock options they gained during their time with the company. These portraits of Bill Gates's proteges offers a unique opportunity to get inside the heads of some of the most creative people ever to have worked in Silicon Valley. The book includes interviews with Richard Brodie (author of Word), Scott Oki (founder of Microsoft International) and Neil Evans (creator of the Microsoft Network).
