Bad Blood

A Comprehensive Book Review of Bad Blood

The book opens on November 17, 2006, painting a picture of biotech startup Theranos, led by twenty-two-year-old Elizabeth Holmes. The board is full of seasoned professionals. The blood sample analysis technology is promising. Investors are excited. The company is valued at $165 million just three years after its founding. There’s just one small problem: the technology doesn’t always work. And Holmes has been faking the results in investor presentations.
When Henry Mosley, the Chief Financial Officer at the time, raised his concerns with the falsified results, he was promptly fired. This would be far from the last time such a firing occurred. Theranos, in fact, would go on for another decade deceiving investors and operating with a level of secrecy usually reserved for the Pentagon.
Elizabeth Holmes was made out to be the most promising woman in technology. She was the youngest self-made female billionaire in history. She was beautiful, charismatic, and was sure to change the world. She believed herself—and others predicted her—to be the next Steve Jobs. Her signature black turtlenecks were just one more way to emulate him. She was the female hero the tech world had been craving. Unfortunately, it was all a lie.
Bad Blood is the true story of one of the darlings of Silicon Valley and her dramatic fall from grace, written by the Wall Street Journal reporter who first broke the story in 2016.
