Created just eight years ago, Airbnb has become hugely disruptive in the long‑standing hotel business and in entire urban economies. Drawing upon extensive research and years of interviews with Brian Chesky, the youthful CEO of Airbnb, Leigh Gallagher will present a thorough and objective account of this unusual company, examining its meteoric and colorful rise, its nagging troubles, its popularity around the world, and the concerns regarding its growth and potential pitfalls. It's meant to appeal to both general business readers as well as anyone who has used or been tempted by Airbnb.
