How to Rule the World
A searing critique of the crony-capitalist, talent-scraping culture of the Stanford elites, by a brilliant young journalist
When seventeen-year old Theo Baker arrived at Stanford University one brisk September morning, its manicured lawns, palm trees and sparkling fountains, all under azure Californian skies, provoked in him both wonderment and a sense of anticipation. After all, this legendary campus, where Rodin sculptures rub shoulders with nuclear laboratories, is where Silicon Valley was birthed. Its research park housed the headquarters of Facebook and Hewlett Packard, with venture capitalists a stone's throw away, ready to fund the next promising teenager's startup. With an annual budget eclipsing the budgets of 153 countries, yet a reputation for being laid-back and innovative, Stanford seemed like tech heaven. Instead, Baker discovered a cultural rot.
In this astonishing debut Baker recounts his freshman year mission to uncover the secrets behind Silicon Valley's training ground. He describes the Stanford inside Stanford, a strange, money-soaked subculture of infinite excess and access, afforded only to those special few students plucked from the crowd and expected to create billion dollar companies. And he documents a culture of getting ahead at any cost, of cut corners enabled and embraced. A culture that went to the very top. Baker's investigations for the student newspaper would soon place him in the impossibly difficult position of investigating his own university's president, a famous neuroscientist with a squeaky-clean reputation. By the end of his freshman year, after Baker's reporting revealed two decades of unreported research misconduct allegations, including in a study that claimed to have found the cause of degeneration in Alzheimer's patients, Stanford's president was forced to resign.
Both coming-of-age story and clear-eyed exposé, Baker takes us inside this elite American world like no other, revealing the ambitious, amoral, and at-times laughably absurd truth behind the institution training kids to rule the world.

What could possibly go wrong: And as the experiment takes on a terrifying life of its own, those few who are able to fight back will have to use everything they've got just to stay alive . . . and human.

Sok ördögök
„– Csak egy pillanatra láttam. Pár másodpercig. Egy olyan nyolcvan év körüli nő lehetett, talán öregebb. Derékig érő, hosszú, ősz haja volt és anyaszült meztelenül állt az úttesten. Somlyói felnézett a jegyzetelésből.
– Micsoda?
– Mondtam, hogy hülyének fog nézni. Márpedig teljesen pucéran mászkált ott. Egy sovány, inas asszony volt, a haja így lebegett körülötte – mondta, miközben a levegőt legyezgetve próbálta demonstrálni. Somlyói elismerően bólintott, értékelte az igyekezetet.
– És látta már korábban azt a nőt?
Tamás megrázta fejét.”
„De ki engedheti meg magának, hogy szabadon érezhessen akármit, ha figyelő szemek követik mindenhová? Hogy érezhet szabadon az ember egy kicsi településen? Szabályok kötik az embereket, megszólják azt, akinek a viselkedése nem konform, ezért mélyre szorítjuk dühünket, ami kelepcébe zárva viszont egyre csak rothad és növekszik bennünk. És aztán szemmel verünk, rosszat kívánunk, ütünk, gázolunk, ártunk. Felborítják bennünk az egyensúlyt a sok ördögök, nem látjuk tőlük, hol a határ, s ha nem tudunk mit kezdeni szorító érzelmeinkkel, kiszabadulnak, megtörténik velünk a legrosszabbtól is rosszabb.”
„Mennyire hétköznapi is az indulat elszabadulása, s abból mégis mennyire rendhagyó tragédiák tudnak kibontakozni.”

Lightfall - Fényhullás (Öröklétfölde 1.)
A vér nemcsak táplálék, hanem maga a hatalom.
Évszázadokon át vámpírok uralták a világot, mígnem a Szürkék váratlanul felbukkantak a semmiből, és egyetlen éjszaka alatt kiirtották a népesség felét. A túlélők az utolsó vámpírvárosba, Előfénybe menekültek, ahol egyszerű szabályok szerint élték tovább az életüket. A szegények csak gyenge vért fogyaszthattak. A nemesek a legjobbat kapták. És soha, semmilyen körülmények között nem hagyhatták el a várost.
Sam a palotában szolgál, elege van a szabályokból és az Urakból, akiknek éjjeliedényét súrolja. Amikor a város Elöljáró Urának át meggyilkolják, és Sam rábukkan az ezzel kapcsolatos egyetlen nyomra, megragadja a lehetőséget, hogy zsarolással feljebb kerüljön a társadalmi ranglétrán, és így jobb vérhez jusson. Beáll a Vérszívók csoportjába, ahol lázadó szobalányok szövetkeznek a legkegyetlenebb Urak ellen. Hamarosan szövetséget köt egy varázslóval, akinek éles elméje pótolja mágikus hiányosságait, valamint egy halálos vérfarkas bérgyilkossal és egy grófnővel, aki az egész város titkait ismeri.
Csupán egyetlen gond van. Ami egyszerű gyilkossági nyomozásnak indult, felfedte az uralkodó osztály körében húzódó sűrű összeesküvés hálóját. Samnek ki kell derítenie az igazságot, mielőtt ő maga is áldozattá válik. Ha el tudja kerülni a halált, akkor talán örökké élhet.
