Beschreibung
Bill Gates has transformed from a tech villain into one of the most admired people in the world thanks to his philanthropic activities. Although recent divorce proceedings and numerous allegations of inappropriate behavior have tarnished his public image, few question the charity of his foundation, endlessly praised for how it spends billions of dollars to save the lives of the planet's poor. However, as Tim Schwab shows in his bold investigation, Gates is still what he once was: a bully and a monopolist convinced of his infallibility and determined to impose his ideas and solutions on everyone else. Not a selfless philanthropist, but a power broker, a clever innovator who has managed to turn extreme wealth into enormous political influence and convince most of us to praise his actions rather than question them. Schwab's book undermines the dazzling halo that has protected the world's most powerful charity from public scrutiny for too long, revealing how Bill Gates has bought astonishing control over public policy, private markets, scientific research, and the media with his billions.
