{"product_id":"9781398536890","title":"Billionaire, Nerd, Saviour, King","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom his early years, when he was a divisive figure in the burgeoning tech industry, we see the Microsoft cofounder morph into a ruthless capitalist, only to change yet again when he fashioned himself into a global do-gooder. But as Das's revelatory reporting shows us: billionaires have secrets and philanthropy can have a dark side. Drawing upon hundreds of interviews with current and former employees of the Gates Foundation, Microsoft, academics, nonprofits and those with insight into the Gates universe, Das delves into Gates's relationships with Warren Buffett, Jeffrey Epstein, Melinda French Gates and others, to uncover the man behind the persona. In telling Gates's story, Das also provides a new way to think about how billionaires wield their influence, manipulate their image and pursue philanthropy to achieve their own ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Anupreeta+Das\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eAnupreeta Das\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Anupreeta Das","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47381776138403,"sku":"9781398536890","price":460.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781398536890_dfb9a8e8-ff8c-4b61-b164-dce6d4a05116.jpg?v=1776522156","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781398536890","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
