In the Plex: How Google Thinks, Works, and Shapes Our Lives

This is a very thorough and in depth description of the company that was an effect on all of us – Google. It’s written by Steven Levy of Wired and I find that it is a fairly objective. It is always hard to stay objective as a writer when you are taken deep behind the scenes and almost become an adopted employee. But Levy stays rather objective and does present the failures, bad will and actions that have and are still questioned by users and governments.

Over all this is a very good read/listen. No matter how you feel about Google and its part in our daily lives it is very important to try and understand how they think, why they do as they do and how this mega corporation was formed.
