Description: "Stephan Paternot was the poster child for the Internet mania of the late '90s - as well as one of the first whipping boys when the market began its spectacular collapse. Now, Paternot takes us behind the scenes and to the front lines in a Silicon Alley memoir of the Internet craze, recording all the ludicrous hype, the wild valuations, and the record-breaking IPOs with a true insider's perspective. Paternot, now twenty-seven, pulls no punches as he lets us in on his wild ride through IPO fantasy to the market's nightmarish downturn."--Jacket.
