Book Review--"...as a discussion of the rise and culture of online auctioneering, a dazzling commercial success story, and an inspiring account of Omidyar's pursuit of a better world, readers will find plenty to ponder."
- Booklist
"In Viegas's fascinating, accessible biography, readers learn about the early days of AuctionWeb and how it evolved into the eBay site.... Written more to reveal the faces behind these successful Internet developments, these titles are more career and business oriented than straight biography."
- School Library Journal, May 2007
