Inspired by the recent thread about Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos [1] I thought I'd make a thread asking for everyone's favorite books about failed/declining companies. Here is my list:
Boo Hoo: A dot.com Story from Concept to Catastrophe (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo.com) "In June 2008, CNET hailed Boo.com as one of the greatest dot-com busts in history"
Riding the Runaway Horse: The Rise and Decline of Wang Laboratories
The Brain Makers: The History of Artificial Intelligence – Genius, Ego, And Greed In The Quest For Machines That Think (having seen this history in real life and can testify to veracity)
The 2008 financial crisis brought down Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns, Washington Mutual, and other companies, and there were several books about it, as well as company-specific books. Maybe someone can supply specific titles.
