Amazon's First Employee Shel Kaphan Disses Bezos Wife's Book Review - Jason Del Rey - Commerce - AllThingsD

I suspect author Brad Stone is very pleased to see this type of publicity; his Amazon book is now in the 100 bestselling books on Amazon
"“I was at Amazon for the first 5 years of its existence, so I also have firsthand experience of those times at the company, and I have been a fairly close observer since I left,” Kaphan wrote. “I spent considerably more time in the Amazon work environment during those years than MacKenzie Bezos did. By and large I found Mr. Stone’s treatment of that which I know firsthand to be accurate — at least as accurate as it is possible to be at this great a remove, and with no contemporaneous documentation of the early chaotic days or access to certain of the principals.”"
