From Booklist
Reviewed with Daniel Ehrenhaft's Marc Andreesen.
Gr. 5-8. The Techies series offers small-format books introducing significant figures in high-tech businesses. Illustrated with black-and-white photos, each volume provides biographical material as well as some background information about the relevant technology. Marc Andreessen introduces the man who coauthored the early Web-browsing software Mosaic, co-founded the firm Netscape, and was a multimillionaire at the age of 24. In Jeff Bezos, readers will learn about the young Princeton graduate whose plan for selling books over the Web began literally in his garage and grew to be Amazon.com. Both books are fairly short and quite accessible. Check the Series Roundup for a series title on Steve Jobs of Apple Computers. Carolyn Phelan

From School Library Journal
Grade 5-8-These books profile two of the pioneers of the cyberspace era. Andreessen was instrumental in the creation of Mosaic, an early Web browser, and was cheated of recognition for his efforts. In revenge, he created the Netscape Navigator, which allowed the general public to use the Internet easily. However, his triumph sparked a huge legal and commercial battle with software-giant Bill Gates and Microsoft for control of the browser market. Bezos saw the commercial opportunities in an easily accessible Internet and created Amazon.com, one of the first, now most widely recognized dot.com businesses. Although his story makes for good reading, Andreessen's story of revenge and cutthroat competition is the more compelling of the two. Both authors are admiring of their subjects, emphasizing how they were able to see the possibilities of cyberspace and create something entirely new. Although these stories are interesting and readable, the books themselves are not very attractive. Each has only a few black-and-white photos that add little to the text and the cover art is not flattering to either man. In spite of superficial weaknesses, these titles are sure to appeal to both report writers and the young techies who exist in every school, showing them that those who view the world differently can make significant contributions.

short and to the point
29. April 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
I picked up this book from the library for a research paper about Amazon.com for my Microeconomics class. "Amazon.com - Get Big Fast" was on order so I decided to see if this could help me get started. The writing is easy to follow (as this is a children's book) and gives background about Mr. Bezos (his youth, etc.) as well as information about the beginning of Amazon.com. My favourite bit was the struggle to choose the name for his company -- "Abracadabra" was deemed too long and "Cadabra" was thought too similar to "Cadaver." There are black and white photos in the book (images of Bezos, the Amazon River, etc.). I enjoyed the book and think that it (and others in this series) are a perfect foil to the dusty biographies that kids (including myself) had to read in the past. Sometimes one has to wander into the children's section of the library (or bookstore) and take a break from long-winded books (not that I don't enjoy them as well). Besides, all the basic ideas from big management books are in here -- like the idea to emphasize customer service. :)
good customer service

This book provides insight into the customer service goals established by Amazon early on. I personally can vouch for the prompt responses to my many questions related to customer satisfaction. The staff listened (they telephoned) to my complaints and took the time to explain how they were addressing them. This book is a good quick read for anyone considering doing business with Amazon.
WASTE OF MONEY + BOOK IS 10 YEAR OLD
24. Juni 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
Got the book, its actually a tiny booklet. At most, a big blog post you can say.
The language is easy and I loved reading whats written inside. But WHY THEY ARE SELLING THIS BOOK TILL DATE? it does not contain anything at all after year 2000!! Seriously, why would you want to pay for a book that does not even contain latest information? - for which you have paid money.
I would suggest you to reconsider your decision before you purchase this tiny booklet - the information that you'd find else where for free ( wikipedia page on jeff bejos is much better than this book)
for me, its a COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. why these guys are selling 10 year old information!!
