Book Description
Winner of the Gerald Loeb Award for Best Business Book of the Year
In the most important business book since The Tipping Point, Chris Anderson shows how the future of commerce and culture isn’t in hits, the high-volume head of a traditional demand curve, but in what used to be regarded as misses–the endlessly long tail of that same curve.
“It belongs on the shelf between The Tipping Point and Freakonomics.”
–Reed Hastings, CEO, Netflix
“Anderson’s insights . . . continue to influence Google’s strategic thinking in a profound way.”
–Eric Schmidt, CEO, Google
“Anyone who cares about media . . . must read this book.”
–Rob Glaser, CEO, RealNetworks
