"Like Astaire and Rogers, Lennon and McCartney, or Tracy and Hepburn, Grove and Tedlow are the perfect match. Tedlow is a master craftsman-great words, great wit. This book transcends the 'learn from the successful CEO' genre just as Intel's performance under Grove transcended the normal corporate landscape."

"This page-turning drama, told by a master biographer, combines both the grand narrative and the fascinating details of Andy Grove's life. Perhaps many already know that Grove is the greatest American business leader of his generation, but everyone will be enthralled by the twists, turns, surprises, and triumphs of Tedlow's true story."
