The Google Story is the definitive account of one of the most remarkable organizations of our time.

Every day over sixty-four million people use Google in more than one hundred languages, running billions of searches for information on everything and anything.

Through the creative use of cutting-edge technology and a series of groundbreaking business ideas, Google's thirty-five year old founders, Sergey Brin and Larry Page, have in ten years taken Google from being just another internet start-up to a company with a market value of over US$80 billion.
