This history of the dot.com bubble has all the ingredients of a Restoration comedy -- manners masquerading as sophistication, the sheer folly of social pretense and the pathetic attempt to stay abreast of fashion -- and the knockabout antics of French farce. The thumbnail history of the Internet alone is worth the cover price, but those of us who got caught in the bubble need Cassidy's cautionary wisdom -- those who subsequently brought us to ruin in another, more explosive bubble obviously never had this book on their reading list.
