The Google Guys skips past the well-known Google story and focuses on what really motivates the company's two founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Richard L. Brandt examines 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 — who recently became CEO again — is the main strategist, with business acumen and practical drive. Sergey is the primary technologist and idealist, with brilliant ideas and strong moral positions. But they work so closely together that they are 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 world's most powerful Internet company.
